TerminusDM is a terminal-based download manager that provides an interactive interface for managing file transfers. It is designed for users who want to monitor downloads without switching to a graphical application or relying entirely on individual download commands.
The interface displays downloads and their associated progress, giving users a central location for managing transfers and reviewing previously downloaded files.
TerminusDM supports dividing files into smaller sections and downloading those sections concurrently. This approach can improve transfer performance when the remote server supports multiple simultaneous connections and partial content requests.
The program also supports resuming interrupted downloads, reducing the need to restart a transfer after a connection failure or other interruption. Its combination of download history, progress information and keyboard-driven interaction provides an alternative to conventional command-line download utilities.
This is free and open source software.
