Paul Ivanov f76c2df64e Added -c option (--continue) interrupted downloads will properly resume and append to the previously downloaded data, instead of overwriting the file. There's some error checking - if the length of the file to be download matches the length of the previously downloaded data, we report that this file has already been downloaded and do nothing. If there is some other HTTP 416 'Requested range not satisfiable' error, we simply re-download the whole file (reverting to the original functionality) All other HTTP errors are simply raised. Resuming does not override -w (--nooverwrite), since it is not clear what should happen if file on disk is larger than file to be downloaded. Thus, -c does nothing if -w is present.	16 years ago
