That isn't quite what I had in mind. I was hoping for a way to specify the
date as part of the file selection process. One application I plan to use
this for are for RedHat upgrades. I download a file directly to the RPMS
subdirectory, remove the file that was upgraded and do a
genhdlist. Obviously, I would only like to download files newer than the
last date of update.
I'll see if I can add that functionality and send the patch if anyone is
interested.
