Hi, It has been a while since i have been here. If I'm in the wrong area or going about this the wrong way, please let me know.

I have a request: I'm looking for a prog that would allow me to query all links in a page and/or links with a specific word or extenstion in it and be able to copy and paste it onto notepad or into a download manager....

Thanks,
If this is done the wrong way, please forgive me and let me know the correct way!

The resulting program is:
LinkFinder.exe

This has been written using FPC (Free pascal Compiler)



Instructions:

- Enter a URL to scan in the box at the top.
- If required, enter a keyword (by entering a keyword only those links that match that keyword will be returned)
- Click Go, the page will be download. Any links in on the page that match the keyword will be shown in the results box.  
- You are able to select a single or multiple items, click on item to select single, press CTRL and click to select multiple urls.
- A 'right click menu' on the results area will give the following options:
- Download, this option will download all of the selected links. You will be asked what directory to download to, the downloaded file will take the name at the end of the link back to the last '/'. i.e. http://www.bbc.co.uk/pics/bunny.jpg will save as bunny.jpg in the selected directory.
- Delete From List, Will delete the selected item[s] from the result list
- Copy to Clipboard, copies the names of the selected urls to the clipboard 
- Clear, clears all results

Any ideas for enhancements (there are loads) or bugs let me know, and I will do my best, if I have the time to sort them out
