Re: [newbie] Resuming downloads?
Also you can use 'snarf', a command-line utility that allows to resume downloads. And better solution i think, is the use of the 'nohup' command, that allows to launch a command that survives after you leave you session. > Andrew Scotchmer wrote: > > > > Hi all, > > > > Is there a program that will resume a download after being > disconnected by > > the server.
