Download ISOs & other large files with Uget or Wget

Post by mikeslr »

Both Uget and Wget enable you to resume a download if transmission is interrupted, See this thread, viewtopic.php?t=1011.

Uget or Wget, sometimes both, may already be built-into your Puppy. If not, PPM will likely be able to install it/them.

Indeed I myself pretty much always use wget with option -c to download any large files including isos (option -c allows resume since the c stands for: "Continue getting a partially-downloaded file")
