Freenet Grab is now available for Windows without the need to 
install the language Python. (py2exe is magic.)

Freenet Grab  - 0.0.3
 
fngrab.py is a replacement for the official Freenet project's
freenet_request(Un*x) and frequest.exe (Windows). 

fngrab.py has been tested with Python 2.0 under Linux, but
should work with many operating systems and just about
any version of Python. (Success reports welcome.)
fngrab.py uses XML-RPC, available in Freenet 0.3.9.1
and later.

fngrab.py has all the features of freenet_request / frequest.exe
and these unique benifits:

* Retrying failed requests with incremental hops to live.

* Better support for in-Freenet key index searching.
  The official Freenet client doesn't let you specify a range or
  set the threshold for the number of fails to quit before giving up.
  If a range isn't specified, fngrab.py starts searching the index
  at 1 and continues until the number of fails equals the threshold.
 
* Specify a file containing a list of keys to download.
  The file format is simply a text file containing a key on each line.
  When you download keys listed in a file, it derives the filenames
  from the keys:
 
  freenet:KSK@/mp3/britney/I_was_born_to_make_Rob_happy.mp3
  would be saved as I_was_born_to_make_Rob_happy.mp3

  freenet:KSK@test
  would simply be saved as test

* Verifying a list of keys in a file. Keys are requested but the process
  aborts after a few kilobytes have been downloaded. Results of
  the tested keys are saved in a file.
 

Future versions will do threading for multiple simultaneous requests
