It compiled fine for me on my shell account at my ISP (Alpha-dec-osf4.0) and on my home Redhat Linux 6.2 system. (On the linux box, I had to edit the Makefile to deal with undefined symbols in main.c when compiling beta1 but this issue was resolved with beta2.) The --limit-rate option is a real plus for those of us with dialup connections. It's nice being able to control our downloads *hogging* of the limited bandwidth. Thanks. Jesse McDonnell
