I was copying a 1.75G file via drawterm,
when the computer went to sleep around
1.16G of the way through.
The copy was being done by fcp. I presume
fcp, like cp, copies from start to finish, so
what are some suggested ways to copy just
the rest of the file, without starting all over?
I'd like to be able to use fcp again, in some
way, as it's speedy.
Thanks,
ak

modify the source of fc to specify an offset is
probably your easiest solution if you want to
carry on copying at the same speed.

If you're going to start hacking fcp then just add a switch that says
'resume' and it works out the offset for you

hget does something similar, don't know, I'll usually
just restart copying the file.

that's a little much in this case (big file, going over the local network)

I'd be happy to add that. Hopefully others will find it useful also.
Thanks,
