- Warum sollte ich Caitoo verwenden und nicht nur kfm ?

Why should I use Caitoo and not just kfm ?

If you use to download only one file at a time, kfm is probably enough for you ( if you do not need resuming ). Caitoo is utility for people who want to download many files and do not want to look at many progress dialogs.

Caitoo is independent from kfm. This means that when kfm dumps core ( though it doesn't happen too often since KDE 1.0 ), Caitoo still works and transfers files.

However, Caitoo is intended to closely cooperate with kfm as it uses KDE drag and drop. Use kfm to browse web and when you see something that you need - just drag it onto Caitoo window and browse away. You do not have to remember the URL of the file anymore - Caitoo will take care of it. And when Caitoo can't connect - you can still leave transfer on the list and try to connect later.

Another thing is queueing. You can set number of transfers and then use Caitoo as before. Caitoo will only start specified number of transfers, and keep others queued. Later, when first transfers finish, Caitoo will start queued ones.
