But gwget is working pretty well. I just wish I knew a way to force new

Different tastes for different people. I rather like the fact that
wget preserves the original timestamp, since that is a property of the
original file, not of the fact that I downloaded it at some later
time.
The 'ctime' will tell you when you last updated the file, and it
cannot be set to an earlier time. You can use either the 'stat'
program to see it, or add '-c' to ls, e.g. 'ls -clt' to sort by ctime.
