Note: You must have regular
DC++ installed before downloading BCDC++
Some of the biggest differences
between this and the normal DC++ is the ability to support upload queuing and
bandwidth limiting. I would recommend this to anyone interested in DC
because it offers more advanced features.
DC++ 0.20, modified to:
-
new: support upload queuing
-
new: use tab as nick completion character instead of F12
-
support download rate limiting
-
remove the check for an already running instance (I’m going to assume competence on
the part of users)
-
increase the small file limit to 128kB
-
learn user/IP correlations, and uses that information to resolve known search spy IPs into
nicks
-
contain reorganized “File” and “View” menus
-
respond to double clicks on URLs in private message windows
-
automatically grant slots to users to favorite users
-
support granting slots for variable amounts of time
-
allow the utilization of custom lock and pk strings
-
allow the selection of a custom beep sound
-
escape the $ and | characters, so that may be used in chat with other copies of this
version
-
support F12 nick completion
-
allow the selection of and connection to multiple public hubs simultaneously
-
support an upload limit
-
/message command, to send an arbitrary message to the hub: /message
-
allow disabling of connection status through user description
-
support ignoring users
-
display IPs (in case of active searchers) and nicks (in case of passive searches) in
search spy
The official DC++ distribution has subsumed several features of this version:
-
focus the cursor on in the message typing window within the hub frame when the hub
frame gains focus
-
return files with the following additional extensions for specified search types:
Audio
Shorten (.shn), Monkey’s Audio (.ape), and Ogg Vorbis (.ogg)
Compressed
bzip2 (.bz2)
Video
Ogg Media (.ogm)
-
allow choice regarding automatic deletion of file lists on exit
-
implement a workaround for the bug which causes the main window to be maximized
-
correctly support find in file lists
