1 Save the server headers with the file: wget -s http://www.lycos.com/ more index.html. 2  Retrieve the first two levels of `wuarchive.wustl.edu', saving them to /tmp. wget -P/tmp -l2 ftp://wuarchive.wustl.edu/.  You want to download all the GIFs from an HTTP directory. `wget http://host/dir/*.gif' doesn't work, since HTTP retrieval does not support globbing. In that case, use: wget -r -l1 --no-parent -A.gif http://host/dir/ It is a bit of a kludge, but it works.

Now let's leave Wget to work in the background, and write its progress to log file `log'. It is tiring to type `--tries', so we shall use `-t'. wget -t 45 -o log http://fly.cc.fer.hr/jpg/flyweb.jpg & The ampersand at the end of the line makes sure that Wget works in the background.

In this case, Wget will try getting the file until it either gets the whole of it, or exceeds the default number of retries (this being 20). It is easy to change the number of tries to 45, to insure that the whole file will arrive safely: wget --tries=45 http://fly.cc.fer.hr/jpg/flyweb.jpg.

Wget can be instructed to convert the links in downloaded HTML files to the local files for offline viewing. Recursive downloading also works with FTP, where Wget can retrieves a hierarchy of directories and files. With both HTTP and FTP, Wget can check whether a remote file has changed on the server since the previous run, and only download the newer files.

1 Suppose you were in the middle of downloading, when Wget was interrupted. Now you do not want to clobber the files already present. It would be: wget -nc -r http://www.gnu.ai.mit.edu/.  If you want to encode your own username and password to HTTP or FTP, use the appropriate URL syntax (See section URL Format).
