Usando o KGet

Existem diversas maneiras de iniciar e usar o KGet. Você pode carregá-lo manualmente a partir do menu de aplicativos (Pesquisar por KGet ou localizá-lo na categoria Internet). Você pode também defini-lo como gerenciador de downloads padrão do Konqueror, que o iniciará automaticamente quando o download de um arquivo for solicitado.

There are a number of other ways to use KGet to download a file from the internet as well:

• clicking a Download link for a file will automatically start it
• right-clicking on any web-page element and navigating to Actions -> Download with KGet will initiate a download of that element with KGet (this also works for files and folders on remote storage devices)
• showing the drop-target and click-dragging a link or file to it will automatically start a download
• and click-dragging a link or file to the main window will automatically start a download.

The KGet Save To dialogue

Before downloading a file, KGet will ask you where to download it to. You can either type the path manually, or click the folder icon to navigate with a file-picker dialogue. If you have added download groups, you can also select which group to download under.
