GUI — amule & amulegui

The graphical interface is shared by the all-in-one amule client and the remote amulegui client: both present the same panels and windows. The pages below document day-to-day usage of that interface — its elements, searching and downloading files, managing shared content, messaging, statistics, configuration, and appearance.
