Download files from web

Ruby
1

Hi,

I already knew that you can use the following code to download a file.

http=Net::HTTP.start(servername)
resp = http.get(fileName)

But if the files is large this will take some time.
Is there another package with a progress indication?

Thanks
Peter

you should consider using wget. Open a pipe and pass the location and
you should be ready to go.
