Hello GNU and wget developers
I'm trying to get wget to download to my Windows desktop folder (As my only
use of wget is to download files that would be executed if entered into a
webbrowser, e.g. mediafiles)
I tried to use the %HOMEPATH% variable which outputs the current users
homedir. But in stupid Windows, all homedirs is in the folder "Documents and
Settings"... with spaces in it. Dohh! That way, I cannot use wget -P
%HOMEPATH%\Desktop because wget would think that the URL is "and"...
I tried with different types of quote-signs (", ', ยด, `) around the path,
with no luck. wget don't understand the signs.
Can you make wget understand e.g. -P "c:\documents and
settings\<user>\desktop\" <url> ?
Kindest regards
Svend Koustrup
