There is this, but it's not hugely well-known, and only a partial port and hasn't been update in a while. This tool's name (got) is really excellent, and I would love to see something like wget written in Go. There are a few ports of well-known UNIX commands in modern languages (such as fd; a fast alternative to find). Would really be interested to see where this could go! (No pun intended).

Great idea, I'm thinking about V2 and I'm waiting to free my time to work on it, I hope next week...

Got download very very fast and sometimes write slow on disk, in some very large files. v2 should fix this issues first.

got is a cli and go library to download files, I thing to add a new tool cmd/wget it's gonna be a port of wget that uses got libary to downloadf files faster.
