Hi, got a real newbie question here..
When using wget, what are the wildcards in the command?
it doesn't seem to say anything about wildcards in the help..
Originally posted by munkeevegetable heh, i know that it does it, because my brother always uses wget to save that way.. i just wish i could remember the wildcards he used..
just remembered, twas maybe images he saved, not websites... not sure.. it works for one website, and recursively for images..
hmmms..
but I believe that will pull everything 2 levels down from that URL, that might be much more than the specific files munkee was looking to grab.... (pls correct me if I'm wrong)
