Re: [leafnode-list] Bandwidth limiter for fetch downloads?



-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

Hi out there!

I would like to ask the exact opposite of all that. I have the strong
feeling that downloading articles over the modem line could be faster.
So maybe there could be in future releases a command line option that
lets one specify which newsgroups a given instance of fetch should
visit, so one could do
 fetch -P
 fetch --only-newsgroups comp.* &
 fetch --only-newsgroups alt.* &
in e.g. ip-up?
Shouldn't be too hard. Maybe I do it myself if I find the time and
submit a patch?

Marc
