.SH "DESCRIPTION"
|
|
\fBProZilla\fR is a download program that makes multiple connections and downloads a file in multiple parts from different servers simultaneously, thus enhancing the download speed and downloading the file faster than a download with a single connection.
|
|
|
|
ProZilla is able to do ftp searches for other possible sites that contain the same file, ping them for connection speeds and automatically download from the fastest sites.
|
|
|
|
FTP passwords can be specified with the URL, or can be obtained automatically from \fB~/.netrc\fR if it exists.
