Can anyone tell me if there are any ftp clients that can resume UPloads???
I'd be interested to know, as I'm using funny shell scripts to check file
sizes on distant machines and resend (from scratch) if the sizes are not
correct...

(and, yes, I know there are mirroring programmes/scripts, but the last time
I tried one I destroyed 3 months worth of Real Audio files of 20 odd radio
stations that were sitting on a server in London... and, NO, I was not
popular....!!)

Tks
