FileScope is a multi-network filesharing client mainly written by Matt Zyzik, supporting the Gnutella1, Gnutella2, eDonkey and OpenNap networks. It has integrated chatting features and the ability of previewing partially downloaded files. Officially, the application is cross-platform but current builds only support running it under Microsoft Windows, but it 'will soon also run under Linux, Mac OSX, and other Unix based platforms', stating the developer's homepage[1]. Currently, the software is only aviable in English.
On January 18, 2005, FileScope joined SourceForge and released it's code under the GPL. Since this date, the project is effectively searching for new developers and project activity is very low, but it hasn't been cancelled until now.
