The possible bug I referred to was that (in a Cygwin environment) the URL to be downloaded by WGET must be the last parameter in the command, otherwise the parameters themselves are treated as objects for download, so you get things like "Trying http:\\--tries=3 or http:\\-O". I believe this is clear from my original post.
By quoting one paragraph, followed by the last sentence of the succeeding paragraph with no indication that you have chopped anything out, you have distorted the intent of my message. Please don't do this. It is not polite.
