I'm quite new to Linux and thus, to ktorrent. However, I like it very much, because it resembles my favorite for Windows - uTorrent. Yet, for my full and unquestionable appreciation of the program, i wuld like to request the addition of the following in the next release version:
1. Graphical representation of the full download (like uT had it)
2. Graphical representation of downloaded parts for a particular file within a torrent (this is something BitComet had - very handy a feature)
3. same as no. 2., but for chunks (uT had it, and it was quite exhilarating to watch those bars fill up seconds before the download finished :) )

Would it be possible? If not as a default feature, then maybe a plugin? Do I hear a second? :)

Have you tried the infowidget plugin yet ? (It doesn't do number 2)

yeah, leave it to me to be inconsistent :) what I meant - in the general download window in the download % column - behind the text a small graph filling up as the download progresses (eMule-like :) ) the same for chunks :)

Infowidget is great - with those features would be supreme :)

So you want a chunk bar in the % column ? Or just a progress bar ?

look at uTorrent - just as it is there. progress bar in%down column, chunk bar in infowidget/chunks, instead of or aside the 178/256 numeral :)
