PocketFTP was the working title of the project when I started upon the development, but after having had a search on the 'net, I found that this name had been used quite a lot, so I decided on SimplyFTP .... and forgot to change the program title.

I'm not familiar with download managers, can you explain what you propose ?

Would a resume function be a usable compromize ?

A resume would be better than nothing I guess... but what download managers do is simple... some ftp sites trottle an ftp session to X kb/s, a way around it is to start Y sessions to the same file so you get X * Y kb/s instead. For example, a 1MB file with 4 sessions will start the download with 4 different session starting at offset 0, 256000, 512000 and 768000 bytes. If you get what I mean and write them all into the same file.

Will try the newer 0.4 in a few minutes.
