Hello!

I'm working from an institute where FTP access has been restricted. Due to this, fetchngs is not able to download any sequences and keeps failling.

Would it be possible to add a 'http' download option? Right now I'm downloading the data using prefetch which uses http and it works just fine.

I had the same issue, but I believe the enhancement has since been added. You can specify the flag --force_sratools_download. The documentation is good in the parameter docs, but might be worth adding a line to the usage docs during the pending hackathon.
