downloading source reference woes... :S

How does one download all these files in:

http://lxr.kde.org/source/kdebase/ksysguard/

Am not wanting to download the entire kbase folder - just ksysguard folder. Do I have to click on each one and download one by one?

RE: downloading source reference woes... :S

You can use anonsvn to download a part of the sources. You can first find the location in svn with "websvn". For example, if you want the latest stable version of ksysguard, the place in websvn is http://websvn.kde.org/branches/KDE/3.4/kdebase/ksysguard/, the latest released version is http://websvn.kde.org/tags/KDE/3.4.1/kdebase/ksysguard/ .

After that, you can use subversion in combination with the anonsvn server to download the source. The url about the usage of anonsvn is in http://developer.kde.org/source/anonsvn.html .

Note that you can't compile a subdirectory of a package easily, because it doesn't have bulid system (it doesn't contain a ./configure).
