jigdo - Ease distribution of large files over the Internet
Description:
Jigsaw Download, or short jigdo, is a tool designed to ease the distribution of very large files over the internet, for example CD or DVD images. Its aim is to make downloading the images as easy for users as a click on a direct download link in a browser, while avoiding all the problems that server administrators have with hosting such large files. It accomplishes this by using the separate pieces of any big file (such as the files contained within a CD/DVD image) to create a special "template" file which makes reassembly of the big file very easy for users who only have the pieces.
