That would be way to un-secure because people could just download what ever they wanted off of your PC

Just like Kazaa (also it would be to a specifies folder)
But i agree 100% you couldnt do that, it would be too much of an invasion on privacy unless it was a seperate thing, and you agree'd to accept.

Even if they couldnt download it I wouldnt want people to be snooping around my PC and seeing what files I have on it. And Sk3tch answer me PM

No i wont be adding a search feature, as allready said it is too in secure, the /xrlist command gives out a list of files you want to let people know the command lines for, in later releases you can use masks in the /xrlist command so you can filter out zip files for example if you have a large amount of files to share.Also i plan to allow selecting multiple shared folders

I will make a password option the chat will go like this...

Person 1 /rlist

Person 2 Please Enter Password

Person 1 /xrpass pasword

Person 2 gives a list

Person 1 /rfile C:\test.exe

Person 2 Please Enter Password

Person 1 /xrpass pasword

person 2 request accepted sending...

This will ba an option of course, you may not be bothered about security (like me) and you might not want to have to type in a password every time you want to download a file.

I have just uploaded a new version of my plugin. it has 2 new features (sorry no password protection yet but im working on it)

1. Optional filter in the /xrlist command allows you to ask for more specific files
usage: /xrlist *.mp3 <--- will give only mp3 files in the list

Include subfolders option, this will include all files in sub folders of your shared folder in the request list.

I am not too worried about having password protection iff only files within the shared folder can be transferred. I think is far more important than having a password feature atm. Like when I have Apache running, I want the highest level people can view to be the htdocs folder, not my entire hard disk

I am not the programmer but obviously it would go something like this:

if file is in shared folder
      begin transfer
else deny transfer

If you implement this, then I can really start using this plugin without worry

Nice work up till now tho!
