136
Wget can follow links in @sc{html} and @sc{xhtml} pages and create local
137
versions of remote web sites, fully recreating the directory structure of
138
the original site. This is sometimes referred to as ``recursive
139
downloading.'' While doing that, Wget respects the Robot Exclusion
140
Standard (@file{/robots.txt}). Wget can be instructed to convert the
141
links in downloaded @sc{html} files to the local files for offline

Wget can follow links in @sc{html}, @sc{xhtml}, and @sc{css} pages, to
136
create local versions of remote web sites, fully recreating the

138
as ``recursive downloading.'' While doing that, Wget respects the Robot
139
Exclusion Standard (@file{/robots.txt}). Wget can be instructed to
140
convert the links in downloaded files to point at the local files, for
397
397
@samp{--no-} prefix. This might seem superfluous---if the default for
398
398
an affirmative option is to not do something, then why provide a way
399
399
to explicitly turn it off? But the startup file may in fact change
400
the default. For instance, using @code{follow_ftp = off} in
401
@file{.wgetrc} makes Wget @emph{not} follow FTP links by default, and
400
the default. For instance, using @code{follow_ftp = on} in
401
@file{.wgetrc} makes Wget @emph{follow} FTP links by default, and
402
402
using @samp{--no-follow-ftp} is the only way to restore the factory
403
403
default from the command line.

@item -i @var{file}

@itemx --input-file=@var{file}
483
Read @sc{url}s from @var{file}. If @samp{-} is specified as
484
@var{file}, @sc{url}s are read from the standard input. (Use
485
@samp{./-} to read from a file literally named @samp{-}.)
483
Read @sc{url}s from a local or external @var{file}. If @samp{-} is
484
specified as @var{file}, @sc{url}s are read from the standard input.
485
(Use @samp{./-} to read from a file literally named @samp{-}.)
487
487
If this function is used, no @sc{url}s need be present on the command
488
488
line. If there are @sc{url}s both on the command line and in an input
489
489
file, those on the command lines will be the first ones to be
490
retrieved. The @var{file} need not be an @sc{html} document (but no
491
harm if it is)---it is enough if the @sc{url}s are just listed
490
retrieved. If @samp{--force-html} is not specified, then @var{file}
491
should consist of a series of URLs, one per line.
494
493
However, if you specify @samp{--force-html}, the document will be
495
494
regarded as @samp{html}. In that case you may have problems with
509

@cindex base for relative links in input file
510
514
@item -B @var{URL}
511
515
@itemx --base=@var{URL}
512
Prepends @var{URL} to relative links read from the file specified with
513
the @samp{-i} option.
516
Resolves relative links using @var{URL} as the point of reference,
517
when reading links from an HTML file specified via the
518
@samp{-i}/@samp{--input-file} option (together with
519
@samp{--force-html}, or when the input file was fetched remotely from
520
a server describing it as @sc{html}). This is equivalent to the
521
presence of a @code{BASE} tag in the @sc{html} input file, with
522
@var{URL} as the value for the @code{href} attribute.
524
For instance, if you specify @samp{http://foo/bar/a.html} for
525
@var{URL}, and Wget reads @samp{../baz/b.html} from the input file, it
526
would be resolved to @samp{http://foo/baz/b.html}.

cases, the local file will be @dfn{clobbered}, or overwritten, upon
579
592
repeated download. In other cases it will be preserved.
581
When running Wget without @samp{-N}, @samp{-nc}, @samp{-r}, or @samp{p},
582
downloading the same file in the same directory will result in the
583
original copy of @var{file} being preserved and the second copy being
584
named @samp{@var{file}.1}. If that file is downloaded yet again, the
585
third copy will be named @samp{@var{file}.2}, and so on. When
586
@samp{-nc} is specified, this behavior is suppressed, and Wget will
587
refuse to download newer copies of @samp{@var{file}}. Therefore,
588
``@code{no-clobber}'' is actually a misnomer in this mode---it's not
589
clobbering that's prevented (as the numeric suffixes were already
590
preventing clobbering), but rather the multiple version saving that's
594
When running Wget without @samp{-N}, @samp{-nc}, @samp{-r}, or
595
@samp{-p}, downloading the same file in the same directory will result
596
in the original copy of @var{file} being preserved and the second copy
597
being named @samp{@var{file}.1}. If that file is downloaded yet
598
again, the third copy will be named @samp{@var{file}.2}, and so on.
599
(This is also the behavior with @samp{-nd}, even if @samp{-r} or
600
@samp{-p} are in effect.) When @samp{-nc} is specified, this behavior
601
is suppressed, and Wget will refuse to download newer copies of
602
@samp{@var{file}}. Therefore, ``@code{no-clobber}'' is actually a
603
misnomer in this mode---it's not clobbering that's prevented (as the
604
numeric suffixes were already preventing clobbering), but rather the
605
multiple version saving that's prevented.
593
When running Wget with @samp{-r} or @samp{-p}, but without @samp{-N}
594
or @samp{-nc}, re-downloading a file will result in the new copy
595
simply overwriting the old. Adding @samp{-nc} will prevent this
596
behavior, instead causing the original version to be preserved and any
597
newer copies on the server to be ignored.
607
When running Wget with @samp{-r} or @samp{-p}, but without @samp{-N},

902
By default, Wget escapes the characters that are not valid as part of
903
file names on your operating system, as well as control characters that
904
are typically unprintable. This option is useful for changing these
905
defaults, either because you are downloading to a non-native partition,
906
or because you want to disable escaping of the control characters.
908
When mode is set to ``unix'', Wget escapes the character @samp{/} and
913
character. This option may also be used to force all alphabetical
914
cases to be either lower- or uppercase.
916
By default, Wget escapes the characters that are not valid or safe as
917
part of file names on your operating system, as well as control
918
characters that are typically unprintable. This option is useful for
919
changing these defaults, perhaps because you are downloading to a
920
non-native partition, or because you want to disable escaping of the
921
control characters, or you want to further restrict characters to only
922
those in the @sc{ascii} range of values.
924
The @var{modes} are a comma-separated set of text values. The
925
acceptable values are @samp{unix}, @samp{windows}, @samp{nocontrol},
926
@samp{ascii}, @samp{lowercase}, and @samp{uppercase}. The values
927
@samp{unix} and @samp{windows} are mutually exclusive (one will
928
override the other), as are @samp{lowercase} and
929
@samp{uppercase}. Those last are special cases, as they do not change
930
the set of characters that would be escaped, but rather force local
931
file paths to be converted either to lower- or uppercase.
933
When ``unix'' is specified, Wget escapes the character @samp{/} and
909
934
the control characters in the ranges 0--31 and 128--159. This is the
910
default on Unix-like OS'es.
935
default on Unix-like operating systems.
912
When mode is set to ``windows'', Wget escapes the characters @samp{\},
937
When ``windows'' is given, Wget escapes the characters @samp{\},
913
938
@samp{|}, @samp{/}, @samp{:}, @samp{?}, @samp{"}, @samp{*}, @samp{<},
914
939
@samp{>}, and the control characters in the ranges 0--31 and 128--159.
915
940
In addition to this, Wget in Windows mode uses @samp{+} instead of
920
945
saved as @samp{www.xemacs.org+4300/search.pl@@input=blah} in Windows
921
946
mode. This mode is the default on Windows.
923
If you append @samp{,nocontrol} to the mode, as in
924
@samp{unix,nocontrol}, escaping of the control characters is also
925
switched off. You can use @samp{--restrict-file-names=nocontrol} to
926
turn off escaping of control characters without affecting the choice of
927
the OS to use as file name restriction mode.
948
If you specify @samp{nocontrol}, then the escaping of the control
949
characters is also switched off. This option may make sense
950
when you are downloading URLs whose names contain UTF-8 characters, on
951
a system which can save and display filenames in UTF-8 (some possible
952
byte values used in UTF-8 byte sequences fall in the range of values
953
designated by Wget as ``controls'').
955
The @samp{ascii} mode is used to specify that any bytes whose values
956
are outside the range of @sc{ascii} characters (that is, greater than
957
127) shall be escaped. This can be useful when saving filenames
958
whose encoding does not match the one used locally.

990

options for @sc{http} connections.
1024
@item --ask-password
1025
Prompt for a password for each connection established. Cannot be specified
1026
when @samp{--password} is being used, because they are mutually exclusive.
1032
Turn off internationalized URI (IRI) support. Use @samp{--iri} to
1033
turn it on. IRI support is activated by default.
1035
You can set the default state of IRI support using the @code{iri}
1036
command in @file{.wgetrc}. That setting may be overridden from the
1039
@cindex local encoding
1040
@item --local-encoding=@var{encoding}
1042
Force Wget to use @var{encoding} as the default system encoding. That affects
1043
how Wget converts URLs specified as arguments from locale to @sc{utf-8} for
1046
Wget use the function @code{nl_langinfo()} and then the @code{CHARSET}
1047
environment variable to get the locale. If it fails, @sc{ascii} is used.
1049
You can set the default local encoding using the @code{local_encoding}
1050
command in @file{.wgetrc}. That setting may be overridden from the
1053
@cindex remote encoding
1054
@item --remote-encoding=@var{encoding}
1056
Force Wget to use @var{encoding} as the default remote server encoding.
1057
That affects how Wget converts URIs found in files from remote encoding
1058
to @sc{utf-8} during a recursive fetch. This options is only useful for
1059
IRI support, for the interpretation of non-@sc{ascii} characters.
1061
For HTTP, remote encoding can be found in HTTP @code{Content-Type}
1062
header and in HTML @code{Content-Type http-equiv} meta tag.

1423
Use POST as the method for all HTTP requests and send the specified
1424
data in the request body. @samp{--post-data} sends @var{string} as
1425
data, whereas @samp{--post-file} sends the contents of @var{file}.
1426
Other than that, they work in exactly the same way. In particular,
1427
they @emph{both} expect content of the form @code{key1=value1&key2=value2},
1428
with percent-encoding for special characters; the only difference is
1429
that one expects its content as a command-line paramter and the other
1430
accepts its content from a file. In particular, @samp{--post-file} is
1431
@emph{not} for transmitting files as form attachments: those must
1432
appear as @code{key=value} data (with appropriate percent-coding) just
1433
like everything else. Wget does not currently support
1434
@code{multipart/form-data} for transmitting POST data; only
1435
@code{application/x-www-form-urlencoded}. Only one of
1436
@samp{--post-data} and @samp{--post-file} should be specified.
1323
1438
Please be aware that Wget needs to know the size of the POST data in
1324
1439
advance. Therefore the argument to @code{--post-file} must be a regular
1614
1729

@item --no-http-keep-alive
1621
Turn off the ``keep-alive'' feature for HTTP downloads. Normally, Wget
1622
asks the server to keep the connection open so that, when you download
1623
more than one document from the same server, they get transferred over
1624
the same TCP connection. This saves time and at the same time reduces
1625
the load on the server.
1627
This option is useful when, for some reason, persistent (keep-alive)
1628
connections don't work for you, for example due to a server bug or due
1629
to the inability of server-side scripts to cope with the connections.

@unnumberedsubsec Primary List
3577
The primary mailinglist for discussion, bug-reports, or questions
3578
about GNU Wget is at @email{bug-wget@@gnu.org}. To subscribe, send an
3579
email to @email{bug-wget-join@@gnu.org}, or visit
3580
@url{http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-wget}.
3582
You do not need to subscribe to send a message to the list; however,
3583
please note that unsubscribed messages are moderated, and may take a
3584
while before they hit the list---@strong{usually around a day}. If
3585
you want your message to show up immediately, please subscribe to the
3586
list before posting. Archives for the list may be found at
3587
@url{http://lists.gnu.org/pipermail/bug-wget/}.
3589
An NNTP/Usenettish gateway is also available via
3590
@uref{http://gmane.org/about.php,Gmane}. You can see the Gmane
3592
@url{http://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.web.wget.general}. Note that the
3593
Gmane archives conveniently include messages from both the current
3594
list, and the previous one. Messages also show up in the Gmane
3595
archives sooner than they do at @url{lists.gnu.org}.
3597
@unnumberedsubsec Bug Notices List
3599
Additionally, there is the @email{wget-notify@@addictivecode.org} mailing
3600
list. This is a non-discussion list that receives bug report
3601
notifications from the bug-tracker. To subscribe to this list,
3602
send an email to @email{wget-notify-join@@addictivecode.org},
3603
or visit @url{http://addictivecode.org/mailman/listinfo/wget-notify}.
3605
@unnumberedsubsec Obsolete Lists
3607
Previously, the mailing list @email{wget@@sunsite.dk} was used as the
3608
main discussion list, and another list,
3609
@email{wget-patches@@sunsite.dk} was used for submitting and
3610
discussing patches to GNU Wget.
3612
Messages from @email{wget@@sunsite.dk} are archived at
3386
3615
@url{http://www.mail-archive.com/wget%40sunsite.dk/} and at
3387
@url{http://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.web.wget.general}.
3389
Another mailing list is at @email{wget-patches@@sunsite.dk}, and is
3390
used to submit patches for review by Wget developers. A ``patch'' is
3391
a textual representation of change to source code, readable by both
3392
humans and programs. The
3393
@url{http://wget.addictivecode.org/PatchGuidelines} page
3394
covers the creation and submitting of patches in detail. Please don't
3395
send general suggestions or bug reports to @samp{wget-patches}; use it
3396
only for patch submissions.
3398
Subscription is the same as above for @email{wget@@sunsite.dk}, except
3399
that you send to @email{wget-patches-subscribe@@sunsite.dk}, instead.
3400
The mailing list is archived at
3617
@url{http://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.web.wget.general} (which also
3618
continues to archive the current list, @email{bug-wget@@gnu.org}).
3621
Messages from @email{wget-patches@@sunsite.dk} are archived at
3401
3624
@url{http://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.web.wget.patches}.
3403
Finally, there is the @email{wget-notify@@addictivecode.org} mailing
3404
list. This is a non-discussion list that receives commit notifications
3405
from the source repository, and also bug report-change notifications.
3406
This is the highest-traffic list for Wget, and is recommended only for
3407
people who are seriously interested in ongoing Wget development.
3408
Subscription is through the @code{mailman} interface at
3409
@url{http://addictivecode.org/mailman/listinfo/wget-notify}.
