Hi all.  I'm searching and searching the (X11 / GUI) ports at
www.freebsd.org and www.freshmeat.net but I was wondering if some of you
could help me with a better, targeted keyword that describes this kind of
tool or application?

All I'd like is a graphical tool that prompts the user for a URL then
proceeds to mirror that URL to the working directory or to a "base"
directory specified in its preferences.  It would also be nice to filter by
URL's ending in ___ for example, .jpg, .jpeg, .mp3, and so forth.

I used a command line tool called "httrack" for many months until I found
that upon each successive run of the program, it deletes the results of the
last run!  Stupid!

Thanks for any ideas you all may have.
