Description : Jigsaw Download (for short jigdo) is a scheme developed primarily to make it
: easy to distribute huge filesystem images (e.g. CD (ISO9660) or DVD (UDF)
: images) over the internet, but it could also be used for other data which is
: awkward to handle due to its size, like audio/video files or large software
: packages.
:
: jigdo tries to ensure that the large file is downloaded in small parts which can
: be stored on different servers. People who want to download the image do so by
: telling the jigdo download tool to process one ".jigdo" file; using it, jigdo
: downloads the parts and reassembles the image. jigdo-file is used to prepare the
: files for download.
