RE: Mirror stuff...
Heh.. well put dude.... They do SUCK.
Cheers to the wanker that wrote them. A mirror by definition, I thought ..
was something that could download the damn planet at any given time... if
you felt like down loading such a large volume :)
So, go rename it you loosers.
I have just been informed, there is a way cool Mirror prog.. called Wget.
It's for nabbing stuff via FTP or WWW. Now this..... will nab the entire
planet IF you really want.
:)
You will find it easy.. I don't need to give you a location.

Subject: Mirror stuff...
ok, this isn't exactly on-topic here, but i'm trying to find a mirroring
program that's like decent. i tried mirror, and fmirror, and both suck.
it'll just create symlinks, and not get the darned files. I just want to
get the Sparc stuff, I dont' want to have to transfer any of the
'binary-all' directories. (plus, i'd like to be able to make a CD, and
having to deal with all those stupid links is gonan be a pain).
does anyone know where I can get just a nice, simple program that will get
me stuff? I hate updating this by hand. :)
