Comicget picks up where it left off if it was closed before it finished getting the file

Registered by E. Jacyna

Comicget should pick up where it left off if it didn't manage to get all the files before.
The user should be able to use the same command, and, judging from the files in the saveout directory, comicget will be able to start after the last file...

If johnny has executed this command:
comicget -r 1-15 -D my_comics url.com/images/%N.jpg

And he stops it halfway through (at number 7, lets say.)
if he then executes the same command, comicget should pick up from 7 (because that's most likely not fully downloaded) and then get the rest.
This could be either normal behaviour or we could add a -p --pickup option (or maybe -c --continue)

Whiteboard

[adamorjames] I like -c --continue. We will have to change the cleanup option to something like -t --tidy or something. -c and --continue will be great because it will be familar to those who have used wget.

[theY4Kman] Shortcut options should only be utilized for often used commands. I suggest using "-c" for "--continue" and have a separate "--clean" option.

[adamorjames] I have thought about the continue option and I think it should be done automatically instead of manually.

[xavieran] Started work on it.
I know that wget doesn't automatically pick up, and you do have to use -c or --continue.
So maybe not automatically.

[adamorjames] The default (without anything) should be continue.
