Axel - A lighter download accelerator for Linux and other Unices.
Updated by FastRunner on Thursday, April 07th 2005.
This program tries to accelerate the downloading process by using multiple connections for one file. Starting from version 0.97, the program can use multiple mirrors for one download as well. The program tries to be as light as possible (25-30k in binary form), so it might be useful as a wget clone on byte-critical systems.
