>make 4chan picture downloader in C# >application is 'not

Have the downloading be done in another thread

>One process, several threads

Download on something other than the UI thread.

Didn't you pass 1st year CS?

>>59427375
Task.WhenAll() is your friend

Async.

Another thread you dumb Pajeet

How the fuck is it possible that you dont know about threads?

dumb winbabby

4dl() {
    board="$(printf -- '%s' "${1:?}" | cut -d '/' -f4)"
    thread="$(printf -- '%s' "${1:?}" | cut -d '/' -f6)"
    wget -qO- "https://a.4cdn.org/${board}/thread/${thread}.json" | jq -r '
            .posts
            | map(select(.tim != null))
            | map((.tim | tostring) + .ext)
            | map("https://i.4cdn.org/'"${board}"'/"+.)[]
        ' | xargs wget -U 'Mozilla/5.0' -nv
}

requires jq as a small dependency

>>59427375
... why? for the challenge?
Firefox + img2tab does the job just fine

I didn't study CS, I'm just doing it for the fun.

>>59428638
I don't care about your shit using the 4chan api
>>59428661
yes I wanted to see how hard it was to make a little gui application in C# that would download the pictures in a thread

>>59428603
I'm a 4th year "CS" student and 9/10 of my classes were beginners courses in various languages. C, Cpp, Java, Javascript, Python, C#. I simply only know basics and they give me a degree next month.

I wouldn't have fallen for the uni meme if I didn't get a full ride.

>>59427375
If you have 4chan x this is already possible. You just need to expand all images in the thread and then press ctrl+s to save the webpage. All images will appear in the webpage folder

fuck off

>>59429012
modern programmers are faggots. too lazy or stupid to do their own so they use frameworks and paste from stackoverflow

>uses C#
>doesn't even know about async await

>>59429012
I asked for advice on howto improve my C# program, not some shitty bash trash so you can fuck off to your own thread.
