-update stops script after it finds 1 file that's already been downoaded

It does not continue the script and update the rest of the files.

Apologies for the delayed response, this was the original design for -update. Please feel free to submit a patch with another option with the behaviour you want.

Does that mean if somebody posted the same picture twice in the same sub, the program would fail to download all the pictures in between? Does the program check for duplicates by post's ID code, the original URL, or by the download as file name?

The possibly naive assumption I made when I wrote the script was that the same file uploaded to reddit a second time would have a different filename. If that's not the case then I guess I'll need to update the script.

Do you have an example of this happening I could look at?
