    ### Create an ETag
    ###  The ETag is required, otherwise IE won't resume a download
    ###  The ETag can have any value, but it must be garanteed that is
    ### unique
    ###  for every file and it changes whenever the file changes
    ###  The idea below is copied form Apache ap_make_etag (http_protocol.c)

#    /*
#     * Make an ETag header out of various pieces of information. We use
#     * the last-modified date and, if we have a real file, the
#     * length and inode number - note that this doesn't have to match
#     * the content-length (i.e. includes), it just has to be unique
#     * for the file.
#     *
#     * If the request was made within a second of the last-modified date,
#     * we send a weak tag instead of a strong one, since it could
#     * be modified again later in the second, and the validation
#     * would be incorrect.

    ### the etag

    ### resuming the
    ### download and advance the file pointer to the correct possition
