I darn near have to; stuck like Chuck in the toolies with a 56k modem
that I have to run at 28.8 for it to make the trip... if I go off to mow
the lawn, you can bet your socks I would have been disconnected or yum
wants a "Yes" when I forgot to tell it to blast away. "wget -c" is my
friend nowadays. It'll resume like the old zmodem would. N I C E ! !
Even after the dnload got completely interrupted and died. She'll pick
right back up where she left off. If I could get "smart' to use wget and
get one file at a time while resuming from any interuption, life would
be totally total. :) Ric
