You obviously missed the point of the original posting: how can one 
conveniently mirror a site whose server uses case insensitive names onto a 
server that uses case sensitive names.

If the original site has the URI strings "/dir/file", "dir/File", "Dir/file", 
and "/Dir/File", the same local file will be returned. However, wget will treat 
those as unique directories and files and you wind up with four copies.

Allan asked if there is a way to have wget just create one copy and proposed 
one way that might accomplish that goal.
