FuQT is a Linux client that enables data retrieval and insertion on Secure Anonymous and Encrypted P2P networks, coded in C++.
To use the FuQT software, you must have Qt 3.x installed on your system. Once installed, simply follow these steps:
1. Extract the FuQT package using the "tar -xjvf fuqt-$version-.tar.bz2" command.
2. Change to the new FuQT directory by typing "cd $new_Fuqtdir".
3. Run the "qmake" command.
4. Run the "make" command.
5. Finally, start the FuQT client.
If needed, users can direct the output to a specific file using the command "./fuqt 1> somefile.out 2> someotherfile.err" or by using "./start.sh". The FuQT package also includes a file titled "fuqt.kdevelop", which can be used to edit, compile, run, and debug the FuQT software using Kdevelop3.
Some important notes about using FuQT:
- The "dldir" parameter in the .FuQT.conf file determines where FuQT creates its base directory for downloads and temporary files.
- If a .FuQT.conf file is present in the same directory as the program files, this will be used in place of the .conf file in the home directory.
- The "dontfreeze" parameter in the .conf file is set to 1 by default (it used to be 0). This means that block 1 will be tried even if the request is frozen.
- The priority system in FuQT works a little differently than in fuqid. Priorities 1-5 indicate how often a splitfile is requested (priority 1 being high and 5 being low), as opposed to fuqid where 1 means "always" and 5 means "if nothing else to do". This system ensures that all splitfiles are requested equally, with parts of a file that have many splitfiles being requested more often.
In terms of pros and cons of using the FuQT software, users can enjoy maximum global throughput when it comes to data retrieval and insertion. However, it's worth noting that small files may take longer to process.
