Dang, this is a fine group, where I've been introduced to newsgroups and the intricacies of downloading from nzbs, what I guess should be called implicit compound conditionals in Bash, several new linux commands, and how to use email. And my Pan download completed using
pan --no-gui -o /home/g/Films --nzb "${nzb[1]}" 2>/home/g/pan.debug Turns out the problem was my quoting the quotes with \. Yet it still made copies of some files, but only a few instead of seemingly every single one, as before. Which suggests that there may be a legitimate reason why Pan does this, and that I simply got spooked because it was doing it so much. Is there a valid reason or is this truly anomalous behavior on its part? _______________________________________________ Pan-users mailing list Pan-users@nongnu.org https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/pan-users
