I remember when I wrote a pretty harsh rant about a wget GUI [1]. This thing is much, much better. [1]: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30797575 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30797575 Just for fun, here's a list of things IMHO this one does right, and the wget one does wrong: * They actually have an option for specifying where the output data goes, and it's right at the top. * "Open..." buttons. OpenSSL doesn't ask you to type local filesystem paths directly into the thing. * There don't seem to be any sentinel values in here. Every optional config option has a checkbox or radio button to turn it on, instead of some magic like setting it to -1. * The spacing is a lot better. I don't see any places where the connection between checkboxes and their text entry fields is ambiguous, if you're willing to assume left-to-right, top-to-bottom associativity. And here's a few things it still does wrong: * Text boxes that won't get used should be grayed out. * The text output and display options make no sense at this stage. Instead, allow the user to configure what they see after running. Output everything, and use various kinds of disclosure widgets to to filter the output. * Multiple rows of tabs are bad [2]. These should be separate apps, like how LibreOffice Writer and Impress use the same backend but have separate start menu entries.
