<p style="color: grey"> Python recipe 578907 by <a href="/recipes/users/4179778/">Mike 'Fuzzy' Partin</a> (<a href="/recipes/tags/curses/">curses</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/dd/">dd</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/file/">file</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/input/">input</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/output/">output</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/progress_bar/">progress_bar</a>). Revision 3. </p> <p>Imagine if the *nix utilities 'dd', 'wget', and 'pv' had a baby. That baby would be named 'padd'. A 'dd' replacement (most commonly used options translate with no problem), that gives progress output like 'pv' and supports (currently) http(s) and ftp input sources, with more planned (sftp for one). Output support for ftp, sftp, and http(s) is also planned.</p>

<p style="color: grey"> Ruby recipe 578034 by <a href="/recipes/users/4179778/">Mike 'Fuzzy' Partin</a> (<a href="/recipes/tags/dd/">dd</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/ftp/">ftp</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/io/">io</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/net_ftp/">net_ftp</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/pipe/">pipe</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/pipelining/">pipelining</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/popen/">popen</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/subprocess/">subprocess</a>). Revision 3. </p> <p>Meant to be a slightly more "advanced" dd utility. Supporting FTP/File/STDIN as input streams, and File/STDOUT/PIPE as output targets, and sporting a progress display (very rudimentary atm), add lets you combine network, and file or pipe processing in a single command. But kind of ended up a mess, see the <a href="https://code.activestate.com/recipes/578907-python-awesome-dd/?in=user-4179778">Python version</a> which is pretty clean.</p>
