 URL.  A new folder is created for each host, followed by others for each part
 of the path.  This ensures that each file is distinct.

 Use the first of the download configuration controls, "Source URL",  to enter the URL of a
-target resource.    Use the "Download Depth" control to determine how many
- hyperlinks deep to go when downloading: 0 means follow no hyperlinks and grabs just the
-target resource. The depth limit is
-ignored when downloading media other than html pages.  Use the "Destination Folder" radio
-button control to choose whether the files are cached into the shared public
-folder or the private collection-specific folder (if available). Next, there are four checkbox controls which can be set to turn on the specified feature for a specific download. A fifth checkbox control "Automatically remove failed downloads..." does not pertain to a specific download, but instead clears the list of any failed download information, and prevents any future failures from appearing in the list. The final control is a "Download" button, which adds to the download list a new job corresponding to the configuration

+ hyperlinks to follow when downloading: Set this to 0 to download a single web page; set it to 1 to download a page and all the pages it points to. The depth limit is

Once the configuration is set up, click "Download" to start the new download job. There are two other button controls: "Preferences", which links to the connection section of the Preferences where proxy settings can be edited; and "Clear Cache", which deletes all previously downloaded files.

-The download list has an entry for each unfinished download.  For each entry, a
-central region with several lines of text and a progress bar is flanked by two
-buttons.  The text gives details of the task, and updates as the task
-progresses, while the bar measures progress.  The "play" triangle on the left
-button starts the current task and then changes to a double vertical bar, which
-pauses the current download.  The "stop" square on the right button removes the
-current download task from the list.  Download tasks are removed from the list
-when they finish successfully (ones that fail are controlled by the "Automatically remove failed downloads..." checkbox).
+The download list has an entry for each web page download.  Each entry has a text region that gives details of the task along with a progress bar showing current activity. Three buttons appear to the left of each entry. "Pause" is used for pausing a currently downloading task. "View Log" opens a window showing the download log file. "Close" terminates the download and removes the task from the list.
