Hello Jens :)
Thank you :)
I have to admit at the start that I understand very little of this.... *as of now*, but that will change with time and effort.
What I tried so far is, I downloaded wget from the link you shared, then..
I created a text file, and renamed it "wget.bat"
and added the text "wget http://xoomer.virgilio.it/hherold/index.html"
in the file and saved it. I then double-clicked on it and nothing happened that I could see.
"Did you cd to the directory wget was unpacked to?" I'm sorry, what does "cd" mean?
I looked at your site, and it sure looks more inviting :b, i'm more familiar with windows environments.
I have a site www.helpusall.com and all I want to do is backup all the html and pictures on the entire site.
Jon

Hi Jon!
Yes, I tried using the 'command prompt' (thru XP) and it replied: " 'wget' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operatable program or batch file "Did you cd to the directory wget was unpacked to? If not, you either need to or add the wget directory to your "path" environment. I always have used wget with a .bat file I'd edit and start from the Windows Explorer. But you might prefer the pure command-line approach :)
aside from leaving out a comma after "program",Well, if my memory of german grammar lessons from 15 years ago are valid for english in 2005, the "or" replaces the "," in this enumeration =)
