Sorry, I'm afraid my english is somewhat poor :((( What I mean is
that the option 'timeout' has a default value if it is not specified
in wgetrc, true?. But if you specify any *_timeout option, then that
default is not used for the options you specify, true again? Then
that value is being ignored, isn't it?. But if you specify
'timeout=900' in the wgetrc, then any other *_timeout option is
ignored. The fact is that I'm using 'timeout' with its default value
but the behaviour of wget is not the same as if I was not using
'timeout'. I hope I've explained correctly this time O:))

OK. I don't like that behaviour, but I understand the use of
'timeout', thanks :))

X''DDDD

OK, I take note ;)
