   On VMS, where (by default) it's harder to write to an open file, the
symptom is different:

ta.html: file currently locked by another user


   But the real question is: If a Web page has links to other files, how
is Wget supposed to package all that stuff into _one_ file (which _is_
what -O will do), and still make any sense out of it?

   It might be practical to rig a new option to put the primary URL
results into one file with a user-specified name, but still handle the
page-requisites in the normal way, but, as currently implemented, -O is
a long way from doing that.

   And I agree, those certainly are ugly file names.

   Could you make a simple redirecting Web page on a Web (or FTP) server
of your own, with a _nice_ name, and then attack that page with Wget? 
(Ugly, but perhaps effective.)
