Status Bar
The Status bar tracks various things that Newsbin is doing.
Odometer
Reports total bytes downloaded with Newsbin. Include header downloads. You can reset the odometer under the Utilities menu.
The odometer area also shows information while selecting items for download. It shows the number of items selected and the total size in bytes represented. For example "Sel: 0006 Size: 1.5MB" means that 6 items are selected totaling 1.5MB in size.
Download Speed
Reports the same download speed in two different ways. One is in bits per second (lower case "b") and the other in bytes per second (upper case "B")
The text has different background colors:
- Blue/Standard when running at full speed
- Yellow when the speed limiter is turned on
- Red when paused
You want to keep an eye out for the last two in case you have inadvertently set the Speed limiter or Paused downloading.
