Hi all,

I would like to have a download manager that resumes the broken downloads. I
don't need other features.

Unfortunately, I can't find a good one.

I've seen more web sites that use CGI scripts for serving files for
download, and no download manager can download these files.

I am wondering if if it would be possible to create a download manager in
Perl.

I am thinking to use the LWP module for contacting the server for the file I
want, then to check how bytes I have downloaded in the temporary file, then
to jump in the remote file and download only starting from that point, then
to add to the temporary file from my computer.

Is it possible?
I don't know how to jump a certain number of bytes on a remote file using
LWP, and I don't know if it is possible what I want.
Can you tell me if I can do that?

I also don't know how to ask for a file, see that it is a CGI program, then
if it wants to print to STDOUT using  a certain  Content-type which is not
text/plain or text/html, to start reading that remote file.

Thank you. I hope this is not too advanced for me.
