As always, it might help to see which version of Wget, which Wget
command was used, what the actual output was, and which operating system
was used.  However, ...

   You're right.  And the most likely fix will be to add an error
message telling you that "-O" and "-r" (and several other options) are
incompatible.  You might review some of the other recent "-O" complaints
at "http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/";, and/or consider that,
because Wget does recursion by looking for links in the files it
downloads, you'd be asking the program to be reading and writing to the
same file at the same time, which, while not necessarily impossible,
would require a significantly different method of operation.

   What would be the value of the mess which would result from such a
Wget command if it _did_ work?
