Well I got it going by typing btdownloadcurses.py
slackware-10.0-install... but the performance is downright horrible!
try rates worse than dial-up 1.2 kb/s and slower.  I haven't tried the
many route yet.  Perhaps I'll kill this current process and see if I
can get something better going.  I'm initiating this from my remote
connection at work and cannot alter my router so not sure now if that
is an issue anymore or not.
