+    A high-level cross-protocol url-grabber.
+
+    Using urlgrabber, data can be fetched in three basic ways:
+
+    urlgrab(url) copy the file to the local filesystem
+    urlopen(url) open the remote file and return a file object (like urllib2.urlopen)
+    urlread(url) return the contents of the file as a string
+
+
+    When using these functions (or methods), urlgrabber supports the following
+    features:
+
+    * identical behavior for http://, ftp://, and file:// urls
+    * http keepalive - faster downloads of many files by using only a single
+      connection
+    * byte ranges - fetch only a portion of the file
+    * reget - for a urlgrab, resume a partial download
+    * progress meters - the ability to report download progress automatically,
+      even when using urlopen!
+    * throttling - restrict bandwidth usage
+    * retries - automatically retry a download if it fails. The number of retries
+      and failure types are configurable.
+    * authenticated server access for http and ftp
+    * proxy support - support for authenticated http and ftp proxies
+    * mirror groups - treat a list of mirrors as a single source, automatically
+      switching mirrors if there is a failure.
