The "all-platform eMule", it is a eMule-like client for ed2k network, supporting Linux, *BSD platforms, Solaris, *MacOSX and *Win32 (*soon). It was forked from xMule project back in september 2003 (not related to it anymore, except little bits of old code), to drive it to a brand new direction and quality. Uses wxWidgets (formely known as wxWindows) for multiplatform support.

* aMule has almost all features of the eMule client, which are:
+
 
+
  - Clients use two networks to create one reliable network (ED2K, Source Exchange).
+
 
+
  - aMule's Queue and Credit system helps to ensure that everyone will get the file he wants by promoting those that upload back to the network.
+
 
+
  - aMule uses the new server protocol like zlib.
+
 
+
  - SecureIdent.
+
 
+
  - IPFilter reload and "use / don't use" functions (no need to close aMule anymore).
+
 
+
  - Localisation: aMule is availabe in more than one language.
+
 
+
  - Download Queue: progressbar only - percentage only - both.
+
 
+
  - Systray integration.
+
 
+
  - Online Signature.
+
 
+
  - Leecher ban: Some people use unsocial clients, these clients are banned by aMule.
+
 
+
  - aMule is completely free (just like eMule). aMule does not contain Adware or Spyware.

  - Each file is checked for corruptions while downloading to ensure an error free file.

    Servers (local and global) and of course direct integration in your favourite browser for easy klick-and-download (with ed2k:// links).
