BlockOS does this, check it out.
Ipquarx:
I actually did check BlockOS, but when i tryed to use HTTPObject.get(host:port, url), it just gave the 2 familiar rtb onconnect and disconnect error lines instead of echoing any lines.

This will download a file.
--- Code: ---$server = "greekmods.webs.com";
$port = 80;
$dir = "/mods/Gamemode_Slayer/Updater/changeLog_Latest.txt";
new TCPObject(tcp);
function tcp::onConnected(%this)
{
%this.send("GET" SPC $dir SPC "HTTP/1.0\nHost:" SPC $server @ "\n\n");
}
function tcp::onLine(%this,%line)
{
warn("LINE:" SPC %line);
//ONLY NEEDED IF SAVING THE FILE
if(strPos(%line,"Content-Length:") >= 0)
%this.length = getWord(%line,1);
//ONLY NEEDED IF SAVING THE FILE
if(%line $= "")
%this.setBinarySize(%this.length);
}
//ONLY NEEDED IF SAVING THE FILE
function tcp::onBinChunk(%this,%chunk)
{
if(%chunk < %this.length)
return;
%path = "config/server/TCP example.txt";
%this.saveBufferToFile(%path);
%this.disconnect();
}
tcp.connect($server @ ":" @ $port);
--- End code ---
That is set to download a file from my website. Simply change $server and $dir (and pick less generic names for everything).
Ipquarx:
Will try that.
