Appendix 2: Future feature List
Things I will do in the future (maybe when hell freezes over!):
- simple conversion from Unicode
- ROBOTS.TXT support
- Detect remote loading of images (geocities sabotages this)
- Custom views in Xenu Window
- Solution for leftover TGH*.* files in temp directory
- Command-line parameters (actually, this has already been done, for a client who agreed to pay my development time to two people I support. If you need something similar, e-mail me, the price is a $300 donation to be split between two people I support)
- Names of last checked URLs in also file menu
- Server based Link Sleuthing, i.e. to be used as CGI application, so that ISPs could offer link sleuthing to their own users, i.e. users could check their own web sites.
- If you are an ISP who is willing to offer this, contact me to work out details.
- Automatic saving every minute
- A correctly working "Update" feature that rechecks changed sites (tricky, so I will never do it)
- Checking of internal anchors, checking for duplicate anchors
- Ideas from Chris:
- What about identifying how many steps it takes to reach a particular page from the home page and how much kb had to be downloaded before one could reach there.
[TH: useful e.g. to which steps a user must take to reach the page of a particular product]
- What about identifying how many steps it takes to reach a particular page from the home page and how much kb had to be downloaded before one could reach there.
- Read RFCs
- Your suggestions: e-mail me also if there is something of the above you'd like to have, and persuade me to do it.
