man aget (Commandes) - A multithreaded HTTP download accelerator
NAME
aget - A multithreaded HTTP download accelerator
SYNOPSIS
aget [options] file ...
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the aget commands. This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.
aget fetches HTTP URLs in a manner similar to wget, but segments the retrieval into multiple parts to increase download speed. It can be many times as fast as wget in some circumstances.
It is the starting point for a project attempting to replicate the functionality of a MS Windows program called Flashget.
