Web Download client for Mac 128K and 512K

Posted by: Dog Cow on 2021-01-27 12:36:32 The Neptune application, part of the Sabina TCP project, is now released in its first beta version. It works to download a web page on a Mac 512K, but I don't have a 128K to test it with. However, the application is intended to work with a Mac 128K too. Anyone who has a Mac 128K and can establish a PPP connection over a serial link can email me (my address is below the screenshot) to receive the beta copy for testing. And be among the first people ever to use HTTP on a Mac 128K. ;-)

Posted by: sutekh on 2021-01-27 13:56:44 Very cool! I'm no help on the 128K front, but would love to try it on my 512K and other 68Ks. I've long sought a wget-like utility, and that "save to file" option looks like just the thing!

Posted by: Dog Cow on 2021-01-30 14:14:58 Yes, that is exactly what this application is for: it's a wget for classic Mac.
