If you are using a DJGPP port of wget, such as the one I distribute,
you can use the special DJGPP notation to get around this. Try:
wget -r -P /dev/j/TOTO http://gemplus.com
The notation /dev/ followed by the drive letter and a foraward slash
should work where unix paths are expected and no special port has been
done for DOS notation. Remember that because of this DJGPP feature,
you can generally not run DJGPP programs in directories actually
called "/dev".
