Zitat von Micah Cowan <[email protected]>:
I suspect that he's just trying to post some data to the specified link,
which isn't expected to provide a real response, which is why he finds
the resulting "trigger" file useless. -O- > NUL (or perhaps just -O NUL)
ought to do the trick, once he's doing that.
Yes, of course, just -O NUL does it also, even simpler as the redirection.
I have the same result here with the latest binary from C.Lewis's site
as well as with the gnuwin32 version:
c:\temp> wget -O nul http://www.uni-koeln.de/
--09:46:08-- http://www.uni-koeln.de/
=> `nul'

The transferred remote file is correctly written to the local
pseudo-file NUL and disappears in this "black hole".
I think, the OP just hasn't tried exactly what the people keep telling
him here. ;)
