By default, Wget is very simple to invoke. The basic syntax is:
wget [options] URL1 [URL2 ...]
Wget will simply download all the URLs specified on the command line. URL is a Uniform Resource Locator, as defined below.
Be aware that ksh
and its descendants (like zsh
) kill off
the background processes during logout. To prevent this, use
nohup
, as documented in system manuals.
However, you may wish to change some of the default parameters of Wget. You can do it two ways: permanently, adding the appropriate command to `.wgetrc' (See section Startup File), or specifying it on the command line.
