wget question
Let's say there's a directory structure you want to wget recursively. And let's say your download is occasionally interrupted for whatever reason. So, you have a whole bunch of files that have been successfully downloaded, and some that have not, but you do not know which ones.
Will using the "-c" option always successfully restart any file, anywhere in the directory structure? Is there any mechanism to validate that all files were obtained successfully? The man page is a little unclear on the issue, and gives several provisos that indicate that there are absolutely situations where you're going to wind up with a corrupted download.
And is there a way to tell wget to check the size of each existing file against the source, and if it's different to just delete the local copy and then re-download it from the beginning?
