That's weied. I tried --http-user and --http-passwd and all is working well.
According to the documentation the following are equivalent:
wget -r --http-user=foo --http-passwd=bar http://my.org
and
wget -r http://foo:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
But they are not. Version 1 works while version 2 doesnt ?!?
Can anyone explain this and if it is so for some techincal reason then fix the
documentation to state it explicitly and not say that they are equivalent ?
Cheers,
Mark
P.S. Some of the features that I mentioned are very easy to implement (like
the "don't leave half downloaded file on errors" thing). So maybe there is a
chance of that going in ?!?...:)
