LinuxDC++ is a Linux port of the Direct Connect client DC++. Though it is
|
|
primarily aimed at Linux, it has been shown to work on other Unix-based
|
|
operating systems as well. It is written in C++ and makes use of GTK+ for the
|
|
user-interface. LinuxDC++ is free and open source software licensed under the
|
|
GPL.

Direct connect is a peer-to-peer file-sharing protocol. The most popular
|
|
Windows client implementing this protocol currently is DC++. Direct connect
|
|
clients connect to a central hub where they can view a list of clients or
|
|
users connected to them. Users can search for files and download them from
|
|
other clients, as well as chat with other users.
