I ask because I often find myself waiting for a large file to download on

smaller files could be downloaded

Using IMAP, with KMAIL allows you to see whats thee, and then download
the message bodys +any attachments acording to preference rather than
order of arrival.

That's a really interesting question. The LIST command returns the octet
size of each message, so the data are available.

I want to lay out numbered paragraphs manually but each time i start a

into just the filename like this:

Perl is unnecessary for this. There is the basename utility:
basename http://server.com/path/to/sourcefile-2.3.4.tar.bz
yields
sourcefile-2.3.4.tar.bz
or, for the full functionality of the perl script:
for f in $(cat urls); do basename $f; done
