I have looked in to urllib2, and I can't find a function which would allow me to get the progress of the download as it happens, bit by bit, like urlretrieve does, at least not easily. urllib.urlretrieve's returnhook is just handy. I have another question concerning urlretrieve, is there a way I can force it to stop downloading half-way, say after the user clicked cancel? Thanks in advance.
