Idea: Chain-link downloads. · Wed Nov 5, 06:19 PM

Sometimes I want to download some honking big chunk of bits from somewhere. Sometimes the source of said bits is a bit preoccupied, or something, and ends up posting said giant hunk of bits as, say, eleven separate CD-size chunks, instead of one or two convenient DVD-size images. It’d be nice if I had a countermeasure for that sort of behavior, such that I could point it at a selected section and say “Get me all those files, and put them in folder X, and let me know when you’re done.”
Don’t get me started on the 11-step instructions to follow once you’ve actually got the files….
