lftp has 'put -c'/'reput', but it may just restart from the beginning, |
| 14 |
depending on whether the server likes it. (I've never have to try |
| 15 |

If you have ssh access, try sftp, I think the standard draft for sftp |
| 18 |
does define a write offset which can be used for resuming uploads. |
