Re: [leafnode-list] Does fetch have an auto-resume capabibily?

I tend to do either "kill %1" or ^C.  The former sends SIGTERM;
I guess from the AIX stty man page that the latter sends SIGINT.
Would you mind having it also catch SIGTERM?

I was getting disconnected while downloading large articles;
it appeared to write incomplete files for those and resume
with the next article on the next connection.  Was it likely
because I used "kill %1"?
