How to download large archive with results?

Q: I’m having some problems to download the big file with archives with the clustering results located on RepeatExplorer ftp serve  I already tried with filezilla and curl as it is suggest by the repeatexplorer manual, but still I get some error in the middle of the download

A:  The best way to download big file is to use curl command:

curl -C - -o my_file.zip -k -v --ftp-ssl -u user:passwd ftp://repeatexplorer.umbr.cas.cz/my_file.zip

In case that download is interupted from any reason, it is sufficient to run the same curl command again and transfer will be resumed  from last point.
