Go Fetch! is an early download manager for the Amiga and was written largely before the term "download manager" was invented. It attempts to automatically download files for the user in a 'fire & forget' manner using the HTTP or FTP protocols. It has an extensive AREXX scripting interface so that it can be integrated with almost any application, such as web browsers, email clients, irc clients etc. Various prebuilt AREXX scripts are supplied to integrate Go Fetch! with other software.
