Re: Wishlist: support the file:/// protocol

2005-12-13 Thread Steven M. Schweda
I, too, see little value in using Wget to copy files which are accessible locally, but let's say that someone wished to add this feature. Given a link like file:///a/b.c, what would be the destination for the downloaded file on the local file system? How would link conversion work? Also,

wget + referer

Hi! I don't find, how can I give the referer for wget. I think, it's become better, when it can give the referer for wget. Some site check the referer before the download started. I use the wget on Windows and Linux. I think, this program is better than bigger and complicated download-manager.
