It would be very nice if there were a complement to the --limit-rate parameter to specify a minimum allowable transfer rate, such as -M or --minimum-rate; this would abort a transfer and cause wget to terminate with a nonzero exit code when the transfer rate dropped below a user-specified minimum speed. For those of us still dealing with Soviet-class monopoly telecom providers (I'm in Malaysia), it would ssave a certain amount of frustration.

Please cc any replies or pointers to me directly, as I am not (yet) a subscriber to the list. Many thanks for your time.

Sincerely,

Jeff Dickey
