The JAGGRAB protocol is used to 'grab' cache files from the file server and download them.

It is a text protocol, similar to HTTP, and the client will fall back to HTTP if JAGGRAB is unavailable. This generally happens in unsigned mode.

Request format

A request is simply the text JAGGRAB, a space, the path to the file and a newline character. Therefore, it is very similar to a HTTP/0.9 GET request.

JAGGRAB /path/to/file

Response format

The response is simply the raw file data. Once the response is sent, the connection is closed.
