Description

The ED2KLinks file is an interface to communicate with aMule. Inspite of the External Connections interface, this interface is mono-directional. and inspite of the Online Signature interface, this one is in-going.

It consists of a regular text file in aMule's directory (in *nix systems that is at ~/.aMule/) which contains the eD2k links aMule should download.

As soon as aMule detects that file, it reads it, starts downloading the links in it, and deletes the file.

Format

The links are listed one after the other separated with UNIX newlines. The file should end with a UNIX newline right after the last ed2k link.

Example

The following is the contents of a valid ED2KLinks file:
