rget

This program is a download accelerator primarily inspired by huydx/hget. Essentially, I was bored one night and now here we are. Barring any bugs, rget should work on both Windows and Unix-like platforms.

Features

Downloads remote files using HTTP and HTTPS
Downloads files using FTP
Downloads files using Rsync
Saves incomplete downloads to be resumed later (partially set up)
Verifies the integrity of file downloads
Uses multiple connections to potentially speed up downloads
Displays download progress using a progress bar
Cleanly handles all known errors

In addition to incomplete features, because rget is in very early stages of development, there will likely be bugs (in fact, I know there are bugs). Please join me in squashing these bugs so we can all download files in peace.

Requirements

A post-1.0 version of Rust (not sure which is the oldest that will work)
