Actually, you didn't get my request .. I wanted to have an easy ability
to chose from the available mirrors for a module. Not everybody is in
favour of taking a look at the DETAILS file just to copy and paste the
URL and use --url.
Its a minor feature request .. but I think its an improvement
concerning useability.

I'd like to see either or both of these new features being implented:
lunar --mirror int  module

... to use a specific mirror out of the module's DETAILS file as long
as there is more than one.

lunar killall (maybe lunar kill )

... to get rid of dead/zombie lunar coretools processes (lin,lget,
wgets started by lget (difficult but helpful)). Make sure you don't
leave any trails behind in /tmp too.

Perhaps allowing a full url path as well.

--mirror http://....... module

that would replace the SOURCE_URL and append the source

so the mirror option may look like

[ --mirror < integer | URL > ]

this is a double-content bug... it should be split up.

* lin --url already exists

* the killall is a design flaw patchup... I'd rather implement traps on
SIGCHLD if that's possible, but I need to figure out how and where.
