Hi,

Brief question:

How good is wget as compared to teleportpro. Someone said,
a while ago:

\begin
wget doesn't have any rule-following ability.  It follows all links to
a given depth, but you cannot specify boundaries or exclusions.  And
it does not care about the types of the links; it will get anything it
sees, and cannot be controlled to get only links to, say, graphics or
HTML.  Also, Teleport rewrites links so that the links in the copied
HTML files point to the correct (local) files on the hard disk.  wget
does not do this.

And that is just the beginning.  Teleport has many many more features
than wget.  But try wget yourself.  If it works for what you want to
do, then use wget.
\end

Before I try wget, I wanted to know if these are rumors and how
true they are.

Thanks
Try "wget --help" and find out for yourself.
