     268Files are downloaded into a folder in the workspace called "Downloaded Files" (only present when mirroring is enabled), and can be used in all
     269collections built with the Librarian Interface.  Files in this area are named by their full web
    276270URL.  A new folder is created for each host, followed by others for each part
    277271of the path.  This ensures that each file is distinct.

    279273Use the first of the download configuration controls, "Source URL",  to enter the URL of a
    280 target resource. Use the "Download Depth" control to determine how many
    281  hyperlinks deep to go when downloading: 0 means follow no hyperlinks and grabs just the
    282 target resource. The depth limit is
    283 ignored when downloading media other than html pages.  Use the "Destination Folder" radio
    284 button control to choose whether the files are cached into the shared public
    285 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

    288 The download list has an entry for each unfinished download.  For each entry, a
    289 central region with several lines of text and a progress bar is flanked by two
    290 buttons.  The text gives details of the task, and updates as the task
    291 progresses, while the bar measures progress.  The "play" triangle on the left
    292 button starts the current task and then changes to a double vertical bar, which
    293 pauses the current download.  The "stop" square on the right button removes the
    294 current download task from the list.  Download tasks are removed from the list

     276ignored when downloading media other than html pages. Next, there are several checkbox controls which can be set to turn on the specified feature for a specific download. 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.

     278The 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.
