Short:    Aminet Download Tool 2.5, AmigaOS/ixemul (Miami)
Author:   umueller@amiga.net (Urban Mueller)
Uploader: kolla@nvg.org (Kolbjørn Barmen)
Type:     comm/tcp

Original readme:
------ 8< --------

This is a tool that replaces the 'ftp' command for downloading Aminet
software. 

To compile this source, type

  sh adt.c

at your UNIX prompt.

The tool is pretty much self-explaining. Press ? at any prompt to get
more help.

Since some time ago the old amiga compiles of adt for amitcp and AS225
started hanging on various aminet servers, so I got desperate enough to
try compile the brand new adt.c with my geekgadgets. I soon discovered
that adt.c had a most useless AmigaOS mode, exlcuding all networking.
After mocking about with stupid "#ifdef AMIGA" settings, I managed to 
get it going by removing the network restrictions in the #ifdef AMIGA,
have makedir(x,y) set to mkdir(x,y) (and not mkdir(x)!) tossing all 
the needed includes in just infront of the TCP bit. Oh, and ofcourse
I use ncurses and no old curses/termcap mambojambo or curser screen.

And wow, it compiled!

The freaky thing is that it also seems to work, I now have adt running
in my amigashell, just like I always wanted it to :)

Compiled and runs on: A3000/060/OS3.5/ixemul48.0/MiamiDx0.9m

To Urban and Matthias or whoever that maintains the adt.c source, please
clean out the source so that it compiles *with* networking also in AmigaOS, 
out of the box, pretty please with sugar on top!

Many thanks to CStar for showing me the true art of 
porting/debugging dirty GNU C code to AmigaOS :)
