#apt-fast by Matt Parnell http://www.mattparnell.com , this thing is FOSS
#please feel free to suggest improvments to admin@mattparnell.com
# Use this just like apt-get for faster package downloading. Make sure to have axel installed
#If the first user entered variable string contains apt-get, and the second string entered is either install or dist-upgrade

#Have apt-get print the information, including the URI’s to the packages

#Strip out the URI’s, and download the packages with Axel for speediness
egrep -o -e "(ht|f)tp://[^\']+" debs.list | xargs -l1 axel -a;
