Siegfried, Thank you for your feedback and you are right. After I downgrade to wget 1.10.2, it works. So I edited the script as follow:
wget -nd -c --read-timeout=300 --retry-connrefused --header "Accept- Encoding: gzip,deflate" http://www.tartet.com/target_file 2>&1 | sed -u 's/.*\ \([0-9]\+%\)\ /\1\n# Downloading /' | zenity --progress --auto- close --title="Downloading File..." The new script works with both wget 1.10.2 and the new one (wget 1.11.4). Closing this bug.
