+ | ======Synopsis: | ||
+ | [[dcc]] resume [=]< | ||
+ | |||
+ | ======Description: | ||
+ | If a previous [[DCC]] [[DCC GET|GET]] file transfer from another person did not | ||
+ | complete successfully, | ||
+ | would have to start over again, but if you are trying to get a very large file, | ||
+ | you may not want to start over again. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Certain other irc clients for non-unix platforms implement this DCC | ||
+ | transfer mode, whereby a file transfer which was previously incomplete | ||
+ | may be resumed at the point the previous transfer stopped. | ||
+ | in which two clients negotiate a resumed transfer violates the irc | ||
+ | protocol in two manners and so is in disfavor among certain people. | ||
+ | |||
+ | However, if violating the rules of irc doesn' | ||
+ | warning that using this feature could cause your connection to get | ||
+ | into an infinite loop with another client doesn' | ||
+ | this feature to resume a previously incomplete /[[DCC]] [[DCC GET|GET]]. | ||
+ | |||
+ | It is necessary for your epic client to have been compiled with | ||
+ | [[compile_opts|# | ||
+ | check this by examining $info(o) and if it includes the letter ' | ||
+ | was # | ||
+ | MIRC_BROKEN_DCC_RESUME|MIRC_BROKEN_DCC_RESUME]] ON (it is OFF by default). | ||
+ | |||
+ | After you have taken these steps, you may use /[[DCC]] RESUME to restart | ||
+ | the file transfer where it left off. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Not all remote clients are capable of [[DCC]] RESUME. | ||
+ | RESUME with someone whose client does not support it, the entire transfer may | ||
+ | fail and you may have to start over. Check to make sure that the other person | ||
+ | is OK with you doing DCC RESUME before you try. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ======Examples: | ||
+ | To restart a transfer with joebob: | ||
+ | /dcc resume joebob somebigfile | ||
+ | |||
+ | ======History: | ||
+ | The /[[DCC]] RESUME feature first appeared in EPIC4pre1.049. | ||
