Re: Troubles with mirroring.
I only want to mirror a web site, which content is on two different servers (different domains), and do not want to mirror parent directories. It seems that it would be good if -np option would work for settings in the -I option and/or in -D options should be possible to put not only domains but domains with paths to directories. Because there are no replies I assume that Wget cannot do it. So, please, answer at least to that question now: will you enhance/modify Wget somehow, so that in the next release it could do it? Cheers! ak

The next release is in the feature freeze, so it will almost certainly not support this feature. However, IMHO it makes a lot of sense to augment -I/-D with paths. I've never been really satisfied with the interaction of -D and -np anyway.

Wget is run by volunteers, and if this extension is not interesting enough for a programmer to pick it up, it won't get done. The best way to make it happen is to write the code yourself, or convince/hire a programmer do it for you.
Re: Troubles with mirroring.
Unfortunately not. Wget is run by volunteers, and if this extension is not interesting enough for a programmer to pick it up, it won't get done. I think it is very interesting and first of all useful. Without it the real, smooth, fully automatic mirroring of web sites, which have their content on several servers/domains is just not possible. That's a huge disadvantage IMHO, that Wget cannot do it. The best way to make it happen is to write the code yourself, or I would if I could. :( convince/hire a programmer do it for you. And that's exactly what I'm trying to do here on the list. :) Ideas are even more important that just coding, because without ideas there would be no coding. :P So I'm giving you some ideas, and someone skilled in coding (maybe you as the inventor of Wget? :)) would write the code. Well, I do hope so. Cheers! ak
