It is designed to be used in programs that need common (but not necessarily simple) url-fetching features. This package provides both a binary and a module, both of the name urlgrabber. . It supports identical behavior for http://, ftp:// and file:/// URIs. It provides HTTP keepalive, byte ranges, regets, progress meters, throttling, retries, access to authenticated http/ftp servers, and proxies. Additionally it has the ability to treat a list of mirrors as a single source and to automatically switch mirrors if there is a failure.
