Here is my report. Sorry I forgot to tell that I am using wget 1.8.1: *********** Can I use -P (Directory prefix) to save files in a user-determinded folder on another drive under Windows? I tried -PC:\temp\ which does not work (I am starting from D:\) Also -P..\test\ would not save into the dir above the current one. So I changed the \ into / and it worked. However, I still could not save to another drive with -Pc:/temp Any way around this? Bug/Feature? Windows/Unix problem? *********** Once again: Saving is fine with /, but you cannot switch drives, at least not on my WinME. > In short, if -P c:\temp does not work, try using -P /temp instead, > but obviously this means you are restricted to saving to a > directory on the same drive letter as the directory from whence > wget was launched. Exactly that is what I experienced. Is/will there be a way around this? CU Jens -- GMX - Die Kommunikationsplattform im Internet. http://www.gmx.net
