I'm trying to do a wget style download with Zinc but running into a few

ZnUtils streamFrom:to:size: with an empty totalSize (as content-length is 
unset) and then produces an empty file. However the download works fine if I 
simply do an upToEnd on the ZnChunkedReadStream. This can be seen by executing 
ZnClient new url: 'http://www.google.com'; downloadTo: '/tmp/foo.txt'.

Thanks

Yes, this seems to be a problem: your analysis is correct, since the size is 
unknown upfront - the whole idea of chunked transfer -, #streamFrom:to:size: in 
its current version cannot work. I will look at this tomorrow, I am pretty sure 
this can quite easily be fixed (minus the progress bar).

Thanks for reporting this.

Thanks a lot Sven.
