swipe is a multi-protocol IRIX-compatible downloader built by User:Raion with BSD, IRIX and other systems in mind.

Design Details

swipe is similar to curl and wget. It aims to simplify downloading singular files. It cannot mass-download from ftp or other protocols.

It supports:

  • HTTP/HTTPS
  • Gemini
  • FTP
  • Gopher

Currently advanced features like proxy support, certificate checking and IPv6 are missing. It's a narrow-scope project. For anything advanced, cURL is a suitable alternative.

Building

MIPSPro and mbedtls 2.x from Nekoware or another source are necessary.
