Generic File Driver for IDM, v 0.5
Updated: The Generic File Driver is similar to the Text Driver shipped with IDM, but has more options, and has the capability to read virtually any file type. Out of the box, the following file types are supported: XML, CSV and XLS (the latter using POI from Apache).
This update comes with an IDM 4 package making the installation simpler and has some new features and fixes.
