Subject: "resume" cp/mv

Message-ID: <43E76B06.50201@bulbous.org> (raw)

Anyone know of any trick to make mv/cp support some form of crash-recovery?

The problem is, if I'm moving a huge directory/file, and the transfer 
fails, there is absolutely no way to continue where I left off. This is 
awfully primitive.

The only way I can think of is to zssh into my own localhost and use 
rz/sz, or the same via ftp, but this seems like a pathetic kludge, and 
even those dont work very well with large directories full of files.
