urlgrabber
------------------------------------------

Python based URL grabber

Program dramatically simplifies the fetching of files. It is designed
to be used in programs that need common (but not necessarily simple)
url-fetching features. This package provides both a binary and a
module, both of the name urlgrabber.

Program supports identical behavior for http://, ftp:// and file:///
URIs. It provides HTTP keepalive, byte ranges, regets, progress
meters, throttling, retries, access to authenticated http/ftp servers,
and proxies. Additionally it has the ability to treat a list of
mirrors as a single source and to automatically switch mirrors if
there is a failure.
