Single quotes around URL are your friend: wget -O outfilename

But I doubt that will work, as I expect Gmail requires some cookies
to be set before download works. If there is a way you can inspect
the cookies set by Gmail in your browser, then you should be able to
mimic a browser call, setting the cookies with wget.

There are about 4 or 5 "&" signs in the url and they "break" the
curl into small urls and it fails

I am trying to download a large file sent to my gmail (nearly

keeps breaking after about 8MB is down
wget does not work on the url. I would prefer to use wget as the
link may
be the problem.
Any suggestions?
