    The only thing I can think of is sending large files by breaking them up (r00, r01 etc), like how a lot of movie torrents come packaged. Just now thinking about it though: can zip do that too?

      Yes, Info-ZIP can do that, it’s called a split archive. man zip and -s splitsize or --split-size splitsize
