I think i just join this mailing list by 
emailing to libwww-perl@ics.uci.edu?

here is my question for LWP:  it seems that you can send a "GET"
request for a file, but say, starting at  byte 5000
and then you want just 2000 bytes.

Is that possible?

The routines I saw are all getting the complete file.

And if it is possible, can most Web server support it?
I think some cannot?
