download only...only download the info file...

Code Sample
   os.execute(terminal..[[ -title "Downloading ]]..
   myfile.title..[[" -e sh -c "unset DISPLAY && cd ]]..dirname..
   [[ &&  wget ]]..mirror..myfile.location..[[/]]..myfile.title..
   [[{.info,.md5.txt,}]]..[[ && md5sum -c ]]..myfile.title..
   [[.md5.txt && echo Press \"Enter\" to continue && read"]])

That should essentially be wget http://mymirror/extension{.info,.md5.txt,}
Which *should* execute three instances of wget.  It worked that way for me anyway.  I typically use gnu wget, which allows for multiple files, but I tested this with busybox from DSL 4.3
