Here is a little script i've cooked up which is available for Windows and Linux(for the Windows script it uses UnxUtils which is a win32 port for some essential linux apps, don't worry i've included the necessary binaries in the package).
Here's a Windows screenshot:

Links Updated! 3 July 2010
Version 1.5 released!
Premium support added
(Thanks to all those who contributed, especially Tavva Capoblud)
Occasionally, rapidshare may change the way their website works and this script might stop working, but for now it works without problem!
Installing:
Linux
For linux users, this is just a simple bash script. Just do the following to set it up:
unzip rsdown_linux.zip
chmod +x ./rsdown_linux/rsdown.sh
Note that you need to have the following tools installed(which are installed by default most of the time): cat,cut,gawk,grep,sleep,wc,wget
Windows
For Windows users, extract the package, and navigate to the rsdown_win folder. then:
1. right-click on rsdown.sh
2. choose Open with -> Browse to the rsdown_win\bin\ folder
3. choose sh.exe, and press ok
Running:
Now, you can add your rapidshare downloads to the dllist.txt file and do:
Linux
cd ./rsdown_linux/
./rsdown.sh
./rsdown.sh
Windows
double click on rsdown.sh (inside rsdown_win folder)
Downloads will be stored in the dls/ folder.
The script will automatically start the downloads in the list, and even if the DOWNLOAD LIMIT has been exceeded, it will wait and retry until it can download the other files.
If any problem occurs or you like it or have any suggestion, don't hesitate to post a message! Hope you enjoy it.
