1 Overview

GNU Wget is a free utility for non-interactive download of files from the Web. It supports HTTP, HTTPS, and FTP protocols, as well as retrieval through HTTP proxies.

This chapter is a partial overview of Wget’s features.

• Wget is non-interactive, meaning that it can work in the background, while the user is not logged on. This allows you to start a retrieval and disconnect from the system, letting Wget finish the work. By contrast, most of the Web browsers require constant user’s presence, which can be a great hindrance when transferring a lot of data.
• Wget can follow links in HTML, XHTML, and CSS pages, to create local versions of remote web sites, fully recreating the directory structure of the original site. This is sometimes referred to as “recursive downloading.” While doing that, Wget respects the Robot Exclusion Standard (). Wget can be instructed to convert the links in downloaded files to point at the local files, for offline viewing.
• File name wildcard matching and recursive mirroring of directories are available when retrieving via FTP. Wget can read the time-stamp information given by both HTTP and FTP servers, and store it locally. Thus Wget can see if the remote file has changed since last retrieval, and automatically retrieve the new version if it has. This makes Wget suitable for mirroring of FTP sites, as well as home pages.
• Wget has been designed for robustness over slow or unstable network connections; if a download fails due to a network problem, it will keep retrying until the whole file has been retrieved. If the server supports regetting, it will instruct the server to continue the download from where it left off.
• Wget supports proxy servers, which can lighten the network load, speed up retrieval and provide access behind firewalls. Wget uses the passive FTP downloading by default, active FTP being an option.
• Wget supports IP version 6, the next generation of IP. IPv6 is autodetected at compile-time, and can be disabled at either build or run time. Binaries built with IPv6 support work well in both IPv4-only and dual family environments.
• Built-in features offer mechanisms to tune which links you wish to follow (see Following Links).
• The progress of individual downloads is traced using a progress gauge. Interactive downloads are tracked using a “thermometer”-style gauge, whereas non-interactive ones are traced with dots, each dot representing a fixed amount of data received (1KB by default). Either gauge can be customized to your preferences.
• Most of the features are fully configurable, either through command line options, or via the initialization file (see Startup File). Wget allows you to define global startup files ( by default) for site settings. You can also specify the location of a startup file with the –config option. To disable the reading of config files, use –no-config. If both –config and –no-config are given, –no-config is ignored.
• Finally, GNU Wget is free software. This means that everyone may use it, redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License, as published by the Free Software Foundation (see the file that came with GNU Wget, for details).

2 Invoking

By default, Wget is very simple to invoke. The basic syntax is:

Wget will simply download all the URLs specified on the command line. is a Uniform Resource Locator, as defined below.

However, you may wish to change some of the default parameters of Wget. You can do it two ways: permanently, adding the appropriate command to (see Startup File), or specifying it on the command line.

2.1 URL Format

URL is an acronym for Uniform Resource Locator. A uniform resource locator is a compact string representation for a resource available via the Internet. Wget recognizes the URL syntax as per RFC1738. This is the most widely used form (square brackets denote optional parts):

You can also encode your username and password within a URL:

Either or , or both, may be left out. If you leave out either the HTTP username or password, no authentication will be sent. If you leave out the FTP username, ‘’ will be used. If you leave out the FTP password, your email address will be supplied as a default password.¹

Important Note: if you specify a password-containing URL on the command line, the username and password will be plainly visible to all users on the system, by way of . On multi-user systems, this is a big security risk. To work around it, use and feed the URLs to Wget’s standard input, each on a separate line, terminated by .

You can encode unsafe characters in a URL as ‘’, being the hexadecimal representation of the character’s ASCII value. Some common unsafe characters include ‘’ (quoted as ‘’), ‘’ (quoted as ‘’), and ‘’ (quoted as ‘’). Refer to RFC1738 for a comprehensive list of unsafe characters.

Wget also supports the feature for FTPURLs. By default, FTP documents are retrieved in the binary mode (type ‘’), which means that they are downloaded unchanged. Another useful mode is the ‘’ (ASCII) mode, which converts the line delimiters between the different operating systems, and is thus useful for text files. Here is an example:

Two alternative variants of URL specification are also supported, because of historical (hysterical?) reasons and their widespreaded use.

FTP-only syntax (supported by ):

HTTP-only syntax (introduced by ):

These two alternative forms are deprecated, and may cease being supported in the future.

If you do not understand the difference between these notations, or do not know which one to use, just use the plain ordinary format you use with your favorite browser, like or .

2.2 Option Syntax

Since Wget uses GNU getopt to process command-line arguments, every option has a long form along with the short one. Long options are more convenient to remember, but take time to type. You may freely mix different option styles, or specify options after the command-line arguments. Thus you may write:

The space between the option accepting an argument and the argument may be omitted. Instead of ‘’ you can write ‘’.

You may put several options that do not require arguments together, like:

This is completely equivalent to:

Since the options can be specified after the arguments, you may terminate them with ‘’. So the following will try to download URL ‘’, reporting failure to :

The options that accept comma-separated lists all respect the convention that specifying an empty list clears its value. This can be useful to clear the settings. For instance, if your sets to , the following example will first reset it, and then set it to exclude and . You can also clear the lists in (see Wgetrc Syntax).

Most options that do not accept arguments are boolean options, so named because their state can be captured with a yes-or-no (“boolean”) variable. For example, ‘’ tells Wget to follow FTP links from HTML files and, on the other hand, ‘’ tells it not to perform file globbing on FTP URLs. A boolean option is either affirmative or negative (beginning with ‘’). All such options share several properties.

Unless stated otherwise, it is assumed that the default behavior is the opposite of what the option accomplishes. For example, the documented existence of ‘’ assumes that the default is to not follow FTP links from HTML pages.

Affirmative options can be negated by prepending the ‘’ to the option name; negative options can be negated by omitting the ‘’ prefix. This might seem superfluous—if the default for an affirmative option is to not do something, then why provide a way to explicitly turn it off? But the startup file may in fact change the default. For instance, using in makes Wget follow FTP links by default, and using ‘’ is the only way to restore the factory default from the command line.

2.3 Basic Startup Options

‘’

‘’

Display the version of Wget.

‘’

‘’

Print a help message describing all of Wget’s command-line options.

‘’

‘’

Go to background immediately after startup. If no output file is specified via the ‘’, output is redirected to .

‘’

‘’

Execute as if it were a part of (see Startup File). A command thus invoked will be executed after the commands in , thus taking precedence over them. If you need to specify more than one wgetrc command, use multiple instances of ‘’.

2.4 Logging and Input File Options

‘’

‘’

Log all messages to . The messages are normally reported to standard error.

‘’

‘’

Append to . This is the same as ‘’, only it appends to instead of overwriting the old log file. If does not exist, a new file is created.

‘’

‘’

Turn on debug output, meaning various information important to the developers of Wget if it does not work properly. Your system administrator may have chosen to compile Wget without debug support, in which case ‘’ will not work. Please note that compiling with debug support is always safe—Wget compiled with the debug support will not print any debug info unless requested with ‘’. See Reporting Bugs, for more information on how to use ‘’ for sending bug reports.

‘’

‘’

Turn off Wget’s output.

‘’

‘’

Turn on verbose output, with all the available data. The default output is verbose.

‘’

‘’

Turn off verbose without being completely quiet (use ‘’ for that), which means that error messages and basic information still get printed.

‘’

Output bandwidth as . The only accepted value is ‘’.

‘’

‘’

Read URLs from a local or external . If ‘’ is specified as , URLs are read from the standard input. (Use ‘’ to read from a file literally named ‘’.)

If this function is used, no URLs need be present on the command line. If there are URLs both on the command line and in an input file, those on the command lines will be the first ones to be retrieved. If ‘’ is not specified, then should consist of a series of URLs, one per line.

However, if you specify ‘’, the document will be regarded as ‘’. In that case you may have problems with relative links, which you can solve either by adding to the documents or by specifying ‘’ on the command line.

If the is an external one, the document will be automatically treated as ‘’ if the Content-Type matches ‘’. Furthermore, the ’s location will be implicitly used as base href if none was specified.

‘’

Downloads files covered in local Metalink . Metalink version 3 and 4 are supported.

‘’

Keeps downloaded Metalink’s files with a bad hash. It appends .badhash to the name of Metalink’s files which have a checksum mismatch, except without overwriting existing files.

‘’

Issues HTTP HEAD request instead of GET and extracts Metalink metadata from response headers. Then it switches to Metalink download. If no valid Metalink metadata is found, it falls back to ordinary HTTP download. Enables ‘’ files download/processing.

‘’

Set the Metalink ‘’ metaurl ordinal NUMBER. From 1 to the total number of “application/metalink4+xml” available. Specify 0 or ‘’ to choose the first good one. Metaurls, such as those from a ‘’, may have been sorted by priority key’s value; keep this in mind to choose the right NUMBER.

‘’

Set preferred location for Metalink resources. This has effect if multiple resources with same priority are available.

‘’

‘’

When input is read from a file, force it to be treated as an HTML file. This enables you to retrieve relative links from existing HTML files on your local disk, by adding to HTML, or using the ‘’ command-line option.

‘’

‘’

Resolves relative links using as the point of reference, when reading links from an HTML file specified via the ‘’/‘’ option (together with ‘’, or when the input file was fetched remotely from a server describing it as HTML). This is equivalent to the presence of a tag in the HTML input file, with as the value for the attribute.

For instance, if you specify ‘’ for , and Wget reads ‘’ from the input file, it would be resolved to ‘’.

‘’

Specify the location of a startup file you wish to use instead of the default one(s). Use –no-config to disable reading of config files. If both –config and –no-config are given, –no-config is ignored.

‘’

Logs all URL rejections to as comma separated values. The values include the reason of rejection, the URL and the parent URL it was found in.

2.5 Download Options

‘’

When making client TCP/IP connections, bind to on the local machine. may be specified as a hostname or IP address. This option can be useful if your machine is bound to multiple IPs.

‘’

[libcares only] This address overrides the route for DNS requests. If you ever need to circumvent the standard settings from /etc/resolv.conf, this option together with ‘’ is your friend. must be specified either as IPv4 or IPv6 address. Wget needs to be built with libcares for this option to be available.

‘’

[libcares only] The given address(es) override the standard nameserver addresses, e.g. as configured in /etc/resolv.conf. may be specified either as IPv4 or IPv6 addresses, comma-separated. Wget needs to be built with libcares for this option to be available.

‘’

‘’

Set number of tries to . Specify 0 or ‘’ for infinite retrying. The default is to retry 20 times, with the exception of fatal errors like “connection refused” or “not found” (404), which are not retried.

‘’

‘’

The documents will not be written to the appropriate files, but all will be concatenated together and written to . If ‘’ is used as , documents will be printed to standard output, disabling link conversion. (Use ‘’ to print to a file literally named ‘’.)

Use of ‘’ is not intended to mean simply “use the name instead of the one in the URL;” rather, it is analogous to shell redirection: ‘’ is intended to work like ‘’; will be truncated immediately, and all downloaded content will be written there.

For this reason, ‘’ (for timestamp-checking) is not supported in combination with ‘’: since is always newly created, it will always have a very new timestamp. A warning will be issued if this combination is used.

Similarly, using ‘’ or ‘’ with ‘’ may not work as you expect: Wget won’t just download the first file to and then download the rest to their normal names: all downloaded content will be placed in . This was disabled in version 1.11, but has been reinstated (with a warning) in 1.11.2, as there are some cases where this behavior can actually have some use.

A combination with ‘’ is only accepted if the given output file does not exist.

Note that a combination with ‘’ is only permitted when downloading a single document, as in that case it will just convert all relative URIs to external ones; ‘’ makes no sense for multiple URIs when they’re all being downloaded to a single file; ‘’ can be used only when the output is a regular file.

‘’

‘’

If a file is downloaded more than once in the same directory, Wget’s behavior depends on a few options, including ‘’. In certain cases, the local file will be clobbered, or overwritten, upon repeated download. In other cases it will be preserved.

When running Wget without ‘’, ‘’, ‘’, or ‘’, downloading the same file in the same directory will result in the original copy of being preserved and the second copy being named ‘’. If that file is downloaded yet again, the third copy will be named ‘’, and so on. (This is also the behavior with ‘’, even if ‘’ or ‘’ are in effect.) When ‘’ is specified, this behavior is suppressed, and Wget will refuse to download newer copies of ‘’. Therefore, “” is actually a misnomer in this mode—it’s not clobbering that’s prevented (as the numeric suffixes were already preventing clobbering), but rather the multiple version saving that’s prevented.

When running Wget with ‘’ or ‘’, but without ‘’, ‘’, or ‘’, re-downloading a file will result in the new copy simply overwriting the old. Adding ‘’ will prevent this behavior, instead causing the original version to be preserved and any newer copies on the server to be ignored.

When running Wget with ‘’, with or without ‘’ or ‘’, the decision as to whether or not to download a newer copy of a file depends on the local and remote timestamp and size of the file (see Time-Stamping). ‘’ may not be specified at the same time as ‘’.

A combination with ‘’/‘’ is only accepted if the given output file does not exist.

Note that when ‘’ is specified, files with the suffixes ‘’ or ‘’ will be loaded from the local disk and parsed as if they had been retrieved from the Web.

‘’

Before (over)writing a file, back up an existing file by adding a ‘’ suffix (‘’ on VMS) to the file name. Such backup files are rotated to ‘’, ‘’, and so on, up to (and lost beyond that).

‘’

Do not try to obtain credentials from file. By default file is searched for credentials in case none have been passed on command line and authentication is required.

‘’

‘’

Continue getting a partially-downloaded file. This is useful when you want to finish up a download started by a previous instance of Wget, or by another program. For instance:

wget -c ftp://sunsite.doc.ic.ac.uk/ls-lR.Z

If there is a file named in the current directory, Wget will assume that it is the first portion of the remote file, and will ask the server to continue the retrieval from an offset equal to the length of the local file.

Note that you don’t need to specify this option if you just want the current invocation of Wget to retry downloading a file should the connection be lost midway through. This is the default behavior. ‘’ only affects resumption of downloads started prior to this invocation of Wget, and whose local files are still sitting around.

Without ‘’, the previous example would just download the remote file to , leaving the truncated file alone.

If you use ‘’ on a non-empty file, and the server does not support continued downloading, Wget will restart the download from scratch and overwrite the existing file entirely.

Beginning with Wget 1.7, if you use ‘’ on a file which is of equal size as the one on the server, Wget will refuse to download the file and print an explanatory message. The same happens when the file is smaller on the server than locally (presumably because it was changed on the server since your last download attempt)—because “continuing” is not meaningful, no download occurs.

On the other side of the coin, while using ‘’, any file that’s bigger on the server than locally will be considered an incomplete download and only bytes will be downloaded and tacked onto the end of the local file. This behavior can be desirable in certain cases—for instance, you can use ‘’ to download just the new portion that’s been appended to a data collection or log file.

However, if the file is bigger on the server because it’s been changed, as opposed to just appended to, you’ll end up with a garbled file. Wget has no way of verifying that the local file is really a valid prefix of the remote file. You need to be especially careful of this when using ‘’ in conjunction with ‘’, since every file will be considered as an "incomplete download" candidate.

Another instance where you’ll get a garbled file if you try to use ‘’ is if you have a lame HTTP proxy that inserts a “transfer interrupted” string into the local file. In the future a “rollback” option may be added to deal with this case.

Note that ‘’ only works with FTP servers and with HTTP servers that support the header.

‘’

Start downloading at zero-based position . Offset may be expressed in bytes, kilobytes with the ‘k’ suffix, or megabytes with the ‘m’ suffix, etc.

‘’ has higher precedence over ‘’. When ‘’ and ‘’ are both specified, wget will emit a warning then proceed as if ‘’ was absent.

Server support for continued download is required, otherwise ‘’ cannot help. See ‘’ for details.

‘’

Select the type of the progress indicator you wish to use. Legal indicators are “dot” and “bar”.

The “bar” indicator is used by default. It draws an ASCII progress bar graphics (a.k.a “thermometer” display) indicating the status of retrieval. If the output is not a TTY, the “dot” bar will be used by default.

Use ‘’ to switch to the “dot” display. It traces the retrieval by printing dots on the screen, each dot representing a fixed amount of downloaded data.

The progress can also take one or more parameters. The parameters vary based on the selected. Parameters to are passed by appending them to the type sperated by a colon (:) like this: ‘’.

When using the dotted retrieval, you may set the style by specifying the type as ‘’. Different styles assign different meaning to one dot. With the style each dot represents 1K, there are ten dots in a cluster and 50 dots in a line. The style has a more “computer”-like orientation—8K dots, 16-dots clusters and 48 dots per line (which makes for 384K lines). The style is suitable for downloading large files—each dot represents 64K retrieved, there are eight dots in a cluster, and 48 dots on each line (so each line contains 3M). If is not enough then you can use the style—each dot represents 1M retrieved, there are eight dots in a cluster, and 32 dots on each line (so each line contains 32M).

With ‘’, there are currently two possible parameters, and .

When the output is not a TTY, the progress bar always falls back to “dot”, even if ‘’ was passed to Wget during invocation. This behaviour can be overridden and the “bar” output forced by using the “force” parameter as ‘’.

By default, the ‘’ style progress bar scroll the name of the file from left to right for the file being downloaded if the filename exceeds the maximum length allotted for its display. In certain cases, such as with ‘’, one may not want the scrolling filename in the progress bar. By passing the “noscroll” parameter, Wget can be forced to display as much of the filename as possible without scrolling through it.

Note that you can set the default style using the command in . That setting may be overridden from the command line. For example, to force the bar output without scrolling, use ‘’.

‘’

Force wget to display the progress bar in any verbosity.

By default, wget only displays the progress bar in verbose mode. One may however, want wget to display the progress bar on screen in conjunction with any other verbosity modes like ‘’ or ‘’. This is often a desired a property when invoking wget to download several small/large files. In such a case, wget could simply be invoked with this parameter to get a much cleaner output on the screen.

This option will also force the progress bar to be printed to when used alongside the ‘’ option.

‘’

‘’

Turn on time-stamping. See Time-Stamping, for details.

‘’

Do not send If-Modified-Since header in ‘’ mode. Send preliminary HEAD request instead. This has only effect in ‘’ mode.

‘’

Don’t set the local file’s timestamp by the one on the server.

By default, when a file is downloaded, its timestamps are set to match those from the remote file. This allows the use of ‘’ on subsequent invocations of wget. However, it is sometimes useful to base the local file’s timestamp on when it was actually downloaded; for that purpose, the ‘’ option has been provided.

‘’

‘’

Print the headers sent by HTTP servers and responses sent by FTP servers.

‘’

When invoked with this option, Wget will behave as a Web spider, which means that it will not download the pages, just check that they are there. For example, you can use Wget to check your bookmarks:

wget --spider --force-html -i bookmarks.html

This feature needs much more work for Wget to get close to the functionality of real web spiders.

‘’

‘’

Set the network timeout to seconds. This is equivalent to specifying ‘’, ‘’, and ‘’, all at the same time.

When interacting with the network, Wget can check for timeout and abort the operation if it takes too long. This prevents anomalies like hanging reads and infinite connects. The only timeout enabled by default is a 900-second read timeout. Setting a timeout to 0 disables it altogether. Unless you know what you are doing, it is best not to change the default timeout settings.

All timeout-related options accept decimal values, as well as subsecond values. For example, ‘’ seconds is a legal (though unwise) choice of timeout. Subsecond timeouts are useful for checking server response times or for testing network latency.

‘’

Set the DNS lookup timeout to seconds. DNS lookups that don’t complete within the specified time will fail. By default, there is no timeout on DNS lookups, other than that implemented by system libraries.

‘’

Set the connect timeout to seconds. TCP connections that take longer to establish will be aborted. By default, there is no connect timeout, other than that implemented by system libraries.

‘’

Set the read (and write) timeout to seconds. The “time” of this timeout refers to idle time: if, at any point in the download, no data is received for more than the specified number of seconds, reading fails and the download is restarted. This option does not directly affect the duration of the entire download.

Of course, the remote server may choose to terminate the connection sooner than this option requires. The default read timeout is 900 seconds.

‘’

Limit the download speed to bytes per second. Amount may be expressed in bytes, kilobytes with the ‘’ suffix, or megabytes with the ‘’ suffix. For example, ‘’ will limit the retrieval rate to 20KB/s. This is useful when, for whatever reason, you don’t want Wget to consume the entire available bandwidth.

This option allows the use of decimal numbers, usually in conjunction with power suffixes; for example, ‘’ is a legal value.

Note that Wget implements the limiting by sleeping the appropriate amount of time after a network read that took less time than specified by the rate. Eventually this strategy causes the TCP transfer to slow down to approximately the specified rate. However, it may take some time for this balance to be achieved, so don’t be surprised if limiting the rate doesn’t work well with very small files.

‘’

‘’

Wait the specified number of seconds between the retrievals. Use of this option is recommended, as it lightens the server load by making the requests less frequent. Instead of in seconds, the time can be specified in minutes using the suffix, in hours using suffix, or in days using suffix.

Specifying a large value for this option is useful if the network or the destination host is down, so that Wget can wait long enough to reasonably expect the network error to be fixed before the retry. The waiting interval specified by this function is influenced by , which see.

‘’

If you don’t want Wget to wait between every retrieval, but only between retries of failed downloads, you can use this option. Wget will use linear backoff, waiting 1 second after the first failure on a given file, then waiting 2 seconds after the second failure on that file, up to the maximum number of you specify.

By default, Wget will assume a value of 10 seconds.

‘’

Some web sites may perform log analysis to identify retrieval programs such as Wget by looking for statistically significant similarities in the time between requests. This option causes the time between requests to vary between 0.5 and 1.5 * seconds, where was specified using the ‘’ option, in order to mask Wget’s presence from such analysis.

A 2001 article in a publication devoted to development on a popular consumer platform provided code to perform this analysis on the fly. Its author suggested blocking at the class C address level to ensure automated retrieval programs were blocked despite changing DHCP-supplied addresses.

The ‘’ option was inspired by this ill-advised recommendation to block many unrelated users from a web site due to the actions of one.

‘’

Don’t use proxies, even if the appropriate environment variable is defined.

See Proxies, for more information about the use of proxies with Wget.

‘’

‘’

Specify download quota for automatic retrievals. The value can be specified in bytes (default), kilobytes (with ‘’ suffix), or megabytes (with ‘’ suffix).

Note that quota will never affect downloading a single file. So if you specify ‘’, all of the will be downloaded. The same goes even when several URLs are specified on the command-line. However, quota is respected when retrieving either recursively, or from an input file. Thus you may safely type ‘’—download will be aborted when the quota is exceeded.

Setting quota to 0 or to ‘’ unlimits the download quota.

‘’

Turn off caching of DNS lookups. Normally, Wget remembers the IP addresses it looked up from DNS so it doesn’t have to repeatedly contact the DNS server for the same (typically small) set of hosts it retrieves from. This cache exists in memory only; a new Wget run will contact DNS again.

However, it has been reported that in some situations it is not desirable to cache host names, even for the duration of a short-running application like Wget. With this option Wget issues a new DNS lookup (more precisely, a new call to or ) each time it makes a new connection. Please note that this option will not affect caching that might be performed by the resolving library or by an external caching layer, such as NSCD.

If you don’t understand exactly what this option does, you probably won’t need it.

‘’

Change which characters found in remote URLs must be escaped during generation of local filenames. Characters that are restricted by this option are escaped, i.e. replaced with ‘’, where ‘’ is the hexadecimal number that corresponds to the restricted character. This option may also be used to force all alphabetical cases to be either lower- or uppercase.

By default, Wget escapes the characters that are not valid or safe as part of file names on your operating system, as well as control characters that are typically unprintable. This option is useful for changing these defaults, perhaps because you are downloading to a non-native partition, or because you want to disable escaping of the control characters, or you want to further restrict characters to only those in the ASCII range of values.

The are a comma-separated set of text values. The acceptable values are ‘’, ‘’, ‘’, ‘’, ‘’, and ‘’. The values ‘’ and ‘’ are mutually exclusive (one will override the other), as are ‘’ and ‘’. Those last are special cases, as they do not change the set of characters that would be escaped, but rather force local file paths to be converted either to lower- or uppercase.

When “unix” is specified, Wget escapes the character ‘’ and the control characters in the ranges 0–31 and 128–159. This is the default on Unix-like operating systems.

When “windows” is given, Wget escapes the characters ‘’, ‘’, ‘’, ‘’, ‘’, ‘’, ‘’, ‘’, ‘’, and the control characters in the ranges 0–31 and 128–159. In addition to this, Wget in Windows mode uses ‘’ instead of ‘’ to separate host and port in local file names, and uses ‘’ instead of ‘’ to separate the query portion of the file name from the rest. Therefore, a URL that would be saved as ‘’ in Unix mode would be saved as ‘’ in Windows mode. This mode is the default on Windows.

If you specify ‘’, then the escaping of the control characters is also switched off. This option may make sense when you are downloading URLs whose names contain UTF-8 characters, on a system which can save and display filenames in UTF-8 (some possible byte values used in UTF-8 byte sequences fall in the range of values designated by Wget as “controls”).

The ‘’ mode is used to specify that any bytes whose values are outside the range of ASCII characters (that is, greater than 127) shall be escaped. This can be useful when saving filenames whose encoding does not match the one used locally.

‘’

‘’

‘’

‘’

Force connecting to IPv4 or IPv6 addresses. With ‘’ or ‘’, Wget will only connect to IPv4 hosts, ignoring AAAA records in DNS, and refusing to connect to IPv6 addresses specified in URLs. Conversely, with ‘’ or ‘’, Wget will only connect to IPv6 hosts and ignore A records and IPv4 addresses.

Neither options should be needed normally. By default, an IPv6-aware Wget will use the address family specified by the host’s DNS record. If the DNS responds with both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, Wget will try them in sequence until it finds one it can connect to. (Also see option described below.)

These options can be used to deliberately force the use of IPv4 or IPv6 address families on dual family systems, usually to aid debugging or to deal with broken network configuration. Only one of ‘’ and ‘’ may be specified at the same time. Neither option is available in Wget compiled without IPv6 support.

‘’

When given a choice of several addresses, connect to the addresses with specified address family first. The address order returned by DNS is used without change by default.

This avoids spurious errors and connect attempts when accessing hosts that resolve to both IPv6 and IPv4 addresses from IPv4 networks. For example, ‘’ resolves to ‘’ and to ‘’. When the preferred family is , the IPv4 address is used first; when the preferred family is , the IPv6 address is used first; if the specified value is , the address order returned by DNS is used without change.

Unlike ‘’ and ‘’, this option doesn’t inhibit access to any address family, it only changes the order in which the addresses are accessed. Also note that the reordering performed by this option is stable—it doesn’t affect order of addresses of the same family. That is, the relative order of all IPv4 addresses and of all IPv6 addresses remains intact in all cases.

‘’

Consider “connection refused” a transient error and try again. Normally Wget gives up on a URL when it is unable to connect to the site because failure to connect is taken as a sign that the server is not running at all and that retries would not help. This option is for mirroring unreliable sites whose servers tend to disappear for short periods of time.

‘’

‘’

Specify the username and password for both FTP and HTTP file retrieval. These parameters can be overridden using the ‘’ and ‘’ options for FTP connections and the ‘’ and ‘’ options for HTTP connections.

‘’

Prompt for a password for each connection established. Cannot be specified when ‘’ is being used, because they are mutually exclusive.

‘’

Prompt for a user and password using the specified command. If no command is specified then the command in the environment variable WGET_ASKPASS is used. If WGET_ASKPASS is not set then the command in the environment variable SSH_ASKPASS is used.

You can set the default command for use-askpass in the . That setting may be overridden from the command line.

‘’

Turn off internationalized URI (IRI) support. Use ‘’ to turn it on. IRI support is activated by default.

You can set the default state of IRI support using the command in . That setting may be overridden from the command line.

‘’

Force Wget to use as the default system encoding. That affects how Wget converts URLs specified as arguments from locale to UTF-8 for IRI support.

Wget use the function and then the environment variable to get the locale. If it fails, ASCII is used.

You can set the default local encoding using the command in . That setting may be overridden from the command line.

‘’

Force Wget to use as the default remote server encoding. That affects how Wget converts URIs found in files from remote encoding to UTF-8 during a recursive fetch. This options is only useful for IRI support, for the interpretation of non-ASCII characters.

For HTTP, remote encoding can be found in HTTP header and in HTML meta tag.

You can set the default encoding using the command in . That setting may be overridden from the command line.

‘’

Force Wget to unlink file instead of clobbering existing file. This option is useful for downloading to the directory with hardlinks.

2.6 Directory Options

‘’

‘’

Do not create a hierarchy of directories when retrieving recursively. With this option turned on, all files will get saved to the current directory, without clobbering (if a name shows up more than once, the filenames will get extensions ‘’).

‘’

‘’

The opposite of ‘’—create a hierarchy of directories, even if one would not have been created otherwise. E.g. ‘’ will save the downloaded file to .

‘’

‘’

Disable generation of host-prefixed directories. By default, invoking Wget with ‘’ will create a structure of directories beginning with . This option disables such behavior.

‘’

Use the protocol name as a directory component of local file names. For example, with this option, ‘’ will save to ‘’ rather than just to ‘’.

‘’

Ignore directory components. This is useful for getting a fine-grained control over the directory where recursive retrieval will be saved.

Take, for example, the directory at ‘’. If you retrieve it with ‘’, it will be saved locally under . While the ‘’ option can remove the part, you are still stuck with . This is where ‘’ comes in handy; it makes Wget not “see” remote directory components. Here are several examples of how ‘’ option works.

No options -> ftp.xemacs.org/pub/xemacs/ -nH -> pub/xemacs/ -nH --cut-dirs=1 -> xemacs/ -nH --cut-dirs=2 -> . --cut-dirs=1 -> ftp.xemacs.org/xemacs/ ...

If you just want to get rid of the directory structure, this option is similar to a combination of ‘’ and ‘’. However, unlike ‘’, ‘’ does not lose with subdirectories—for instance, with ‘’, a subdirectory will be placed to , as one would expect.

‘’

‘’

Set directory prefix to . The directory prefix is the directory where all other files and subdirectories will be saved to, i.e. the top of the retrieval tree. The default is ‘’ (the current directory).

2.7 HTTP Options

‘’

Use as the default file name when it isn’t known (i.e., for URLs that end in a slash), instead of .

‘’

‘’

If a file of type ‘’ or ‘’ is downloaded and the URL does not end with the regexp ‘’, this option will cause the suffix ‘’ to be appended to the local filename. This is useful, for instance, when you’re mirroring a remote site that uses ‘’ pages, but you want the mirrored pages to be viewable on your stock Apache server. Another good use for this is when you’re downloading CGI-generated materials. A URL like ‘’ will be saved as .

Note that filenames changed in this way will be re-downloaded every time you re-mirror a site, because Wget can’t tell that the local file corresponds to remote URL ‘’ (since it doesn’t yet know that the URL produces output of type ‘’ or ‘’.

As of version 1.12, Wget will also ensure that any downloaded files of type ‘’ end in the suffix ‘’, and the option was renamed from ‘’, to better reflect its new behavior. The old option name is still acceptable, but should now be considered deprecated.

As of version 1.19.2, Wget will also ensure that any downloaded files with a of ‘’, ‘’, ‘’ or ‘’ end in the suffix ‘’, ‘’, ‘’ and ‘’ respectively.

At some point in the future, this option may well be expanded to include suffixes for other types of content, including content types that are not parsed by Wget.

‘’

‘’

Specify the username and password on an HTTP server. According to the type of the challenge, Wget will encode them using either the (insecure), the , or the Windows authentication scheme.

Another way to specify username and password is in the URL itself (see URL Format). Either method reveals your password to anyone who bothers to run . To prevent the passwords from being seen, use the ‘’ or store them in or , and make sure to protect those files from other users with . If the passwords are really important, do not leave them lying in those files either—edit the files and delete them after Wget has started the download.

‘’

Turn off the “keep-alive” feature for HTTP downloads. Normally, Wget asks the server to keep the connection open so that, when you download more than one document from the same server, they get transferred over the same TCP connection. This saves time and at the same time reduces the load on the server.

This option is useful when, for some reason, persistent (keep-alive) connections don’t work for you, for example due to a server bug or due to the inability of server-side scripts to cope with the connections.

‘’

Disable server-side cache. In this case, Wget will send the remote server an appropriate directive (‘’) to get the file from the remote service, rather than returning the cached version. This is especially useful for retrieving and flushing out-of-date documents on proxy servers.

Caching is allowed by default.

‘’

Disable the use of cookies. Cookies are a mechanism for maintaining server-side state. The server sends the client a cookie using the header, and the client responds with the same cookie upon further requests. Since cookies allow the server owners to keep track of visitors and for sites to exchange this information, some consider them a breach of privacy. The default is to use cookies; however, storing cookies is not on by default.

‘’

Load cookies from before the first HTTP retrieval. is a textual file in the format originally used by Netscape’s file.

You will typically use this option when mirroring sites that require that you be logged in to access some or all of their content. The login process typically works by the web server issuing an HTTP cookie upon receiving and verifying your credentials. The cookie is then resent by the browser when accessing that part of the site, and so proves your identity.

Mirroring such a site requires Wget to send the same cookies your browser sends when communicating with the site. This is achieved by ‘’—simply point Wget to the location of the file, and it will send the same cookies your browser would send in the same situation. Different browsers keep textual cookie files in different locations:

Netscape 4.x.

The cookies are in .

Mozilla and Netscape 6.x.

Mozilla’s cookie file is also named , located somewhere under , in the directory of your profile. The full path usually ends up looking somewhat like .

Internet Explorer.

You can produce a cookie file Wget can use by using the File menu, Import and Export, Export Cookies. This has been tested with Internet Explorer 5; it is not guaranteed to work with earlier versions.

Other browsers.

If you are using a different browser to create your cookies, ‘’ will only work if you can locate or produce a cookie file in the Netscape format that Wget expects.

If you cannot use ‘’, there might still be an alternative. If your browser supports a “cookie manager”, you can use it to view the cookies used when accessing the site you’re mirroring. Write down the name and value of the cookie, and manually instruct Wget to send those cookies, bypassing the “official” cookie support:

wget --no-cookies --header "Cookie: ="

‘’

Save cookies to before exiting. This will not save cookies that have expired or that have no expiry time (so-called “session cookies”), but also see ‘’.

‘’

When specified, causes ‘’ to also save session cookies. Session cookies are normally not saved because they are meant to be kept in memory and forgotten when you exit the browser. Saving them is useful on sites that require you to log in or to visit the home page before you can access some pages. With this option, multiple Wget runs are considered a single browser session as far as the site is concerned.

Since the cookie file format does not normally carry session cookies, Wget marks them with an expiry timestamp of 0. Wget’s ‘’ recognizes those as session cookies, but it might confuse other browsers. Also note that cookies so loaded will be treated as other session cookies, which means that if you want ‘’ to preserve them again, you must use ‘’ again.

‘’

Unfortunately, some HTTP servers (CGI programs, to be more precise) send out bogus headers, which makes Wget go wild, as it thinks not all the document was retrieved. You can spot this syndrome if Wget retries getting the same document again and again, each time claiming that the (otherwise normal) connection has closed on the very same byte.

With this option, Wget will ignore the header—as if it never existed.

‘’

Send along with the rest of the headers in each HTTP request. The supplied header is sent as-is, which means it must contain name and value separated by colon, and must not contain newlines.

You may define more than one additional header by specifying ‘’ more than once.

wget --header='Accept-Charset: iso-8859-2' \ --header='Accept-Language: hr' \ http://fly.srk.fer.hr/

Specification of an empty string as the header value will clear all previous user-defined headers.

As of Wget 1.10, this option can be used to override headers otherwise generated automatically. This example instructs Wget to connect to localhost, but to specify ‘’ in the header:

wget --header="Host: foo.bar" http://localhost/

In versions of Wget prior to 1.10 such use of ‘’ caused sending of duplicate headers.

‘’

Choose the type of compression to be used. Legal values are ‘’, ‘’ and ‘’.

If ‘’ or ‘’ are specified, Wget asks the server to compress the file using the gzip compression format. If the server compresses the file and responds with the header field set appropriately, the file will be decompressed automatically.

If ‘’ is specified, wget will not ask the server to compress the file and will not decompress any server responses. This is the default.

Compression support is currently experimental. In case it is turned on, please report any bugs to .

‘’

Specifies the maximum number of redirections to follow for a resource. The default is 20, which is usually far more than necessary. However, on those occasions where you want to allow more (or fewer), this is the option to use.

‘’

‘’

Specify the username and password for authentication on a proxy server. Wget will encode them using the authentication scheme.

Security considerations similar to those with ‘’ pertain here as well.

‘’

Include ‘Referer: ’ header in HTTP request. Useful for retrieving documents with server-side processing that assume they are always being retrieved by interactive web browsers and only come out properly when Referer is set to one of the pages that point to them.

‘’

Save the headers sent by the HTTP server to the file, preceding the actual contents, with an empty line as the separator.

‘’

‘’

Identify as to the HTTP server.

The HTTP protocol allows the clients to identify themselves using a header field. This enables distinguishing the WWW software, usually for statistical purposes or for tracing of protocol violations. Wget normally identifies as ‘’, being the current version number of Wget.

However, some sites have been known to impose the policy of tailoring the output according to the -supplied information. While this is not such a bad idea in theory, it has been abused by servers denying information to clients other than (historically) Netscape or, more frequently, Microsoft Internet Explorer. This option allows you to change the line issued by Wget. Use of this option is discouraged, unless you really know what you are doing.

Specifying empty user agent with ‘’ instructs Wget not to send the header in HTTP requests.

‘’

‘’

Use POST as the method for all HTTP requests and send the specified data in the request body. ‘’ sends as data, whereas ‘’ sends the contents of . Other than that, they work in exactly the same way. In particular, they both expect content of the form , with percent-encoding for special characters; the only difference is that one expects its content as a command-line parameter and the other accepts its content from a file. In particular, ‘’ is not for transmitting files as form attachments: those must appear as data (with appropriate percent-coding) just like everything else. Wget does not currently support for transmitting POST data; only . Only one of ‘’ and ‘’ should be specified.

Please note that wget does not require the content to be of the form , and neither does it test for it. Wget will simply transmit whatever data is provided to it. Most servers however expect the POST data to be in the above format when processing HTML Forms.

When sending a POST request using the ‘’ option, Wget treats the file as a binary file and will send every character in the POST request without stripping trailing newline or formfeed characters. Any other control characters in the text will also be sent as-is in the POST request.

Please be aware that Wget needs to know the size of the POST data in advance. Therefore the argument to must be a regular file; specifying a FIFO or something like won’t work. It’s not quite clear how to work around this limitation inherent in HTTP/1.0. Although HTTP/1.1 introduces chunked transfer that doesn’t require knowing the request length in advance, a client can’t use chunked unless it knows it’s talking to an HTTP/1.1 server. And it can’t know that until it receives a response, which in turn requires the request to have been completed – a chicken-and-egg problem.

Note: As of version 1.15 if Wget is redirected after the POST request is completed, its behaviour will depend on the response code returned by the server. In case of a 301 Moved Permanently, 302 Moved Temporarily or 307 Temporary Redirect, Wget will, in accordance with RFC2616, continue to send a POST request. In case a server wants the client to change the Request method upon redirection, it should send a 303 See Other response code.

This example shows how to log in to a server using POST and then proceed to download the desired pages, presumably only accessible to authorized users:

# Log in to the server. This can be done only once. wget --save-cookies cookies.txt \ --post-data 'user=foo&password=bar' \ http://example.com/auth.php # Now grab the page or pages we care about. wget --load-cookies cookies.txt \ -p http://example.com/interesting/article.php

If the server is using session cookies to track user authentication, the above will not work because ‘’ will not save them (and neither will browsers) and the file will be empty. In that case use ‘’ along with ‘’ to force saving of session cookies.

‘’

For the purpose of RESTful scripting, Wget allows sending of other HTTP Methods without the need to explicitly set them using ‘’. Wget will use whatever string is passed to it after ‘’ as the HTTP Method to the server.

‘’

‘’

Must be set when additional data needs to be sent to the server along with the Method specified using ‘’. ‘’ sends as data, whereas ‘’ sends the contents of . Other than that, they work in exactly the same way.

Currently, ‘’ is not for transmitting files as a whole. Wget does not currently support for transmitting data; only . In the future, this may be changed so that wget sends the ‘’ as a complete file instead of sending its contents to the server. Please be aware that Wget needs to know the contents of BODY Data in advance, and hence the argument to ‘’ should be a regular file. See ‘’ for a more detailed explanation. Only one of ‘’ and ‘’ should be specified.

If Wget is redirected after the request is completed, Wget will suspend the current method and send a GET request till the redirection is completed. This is true for all redirection response codes except 307 Temporary Redirect which is used to explicitly specify that the request method should not change. Another exception is when the method is set to , in which case the redirection rules specified under ‘’ are followed.

‘’

If this is set to on, experimental (not fully-functional) support for headers is enabled. This can currently result in extra round-trips to the server for a request, and is known to suffer from a few bugs, which is why it is not currently enabled by default.

This option is useful for some file-downloading CGI programs that use headers to describe what the name of a downloaded file should be.

When combined with ‘’ and ‘’, a ‘’ file is named using the filename field, if available.

‘’

If this is set to on, wget will not skip the content when the server responds with a http status code that indicates error.

‘’

If this is set, on a redirect, the local file name will be based on the redirection URL. By default the local file name is based on the original URL. When doing recursive retrieving this can be helpful because in many web sites redirected URLs correspond to an underlying file structure, while link URLs do not.

‘’

If this option is given, Wget will send Basic HTTP authentication information (plaintext username and password) for all requests, just like Wget 1.10.2 and prior did by default.

Use of this option is not recommended, and is intended only to support some few obscure servers, which never send HTTP authentication challenges, but accept unsolicited auth info, say, in addition to form-based authentication.

‘’

Consider host errors, such as “Temporary failure in name resolution”, as non-fatal, transient errors.

‘’

Consider given HTTP response codes as non-fatal, transient errors. Supply a comma-separated list of 3-digit HTTP response codes as argument. Useful to work around special circumstances where retries are required, but the server responds with an error code normally not retried by Wget. Such errors might be 503 (Service Unavailable) and 429 (Too Many Requests). Retries enabled by this option are performed subject to the normal retry timing and retry count limitations of Wget.

Using this option is intended to support special use cases only and is generally not recommended, as it can force retries even in cases where the server is actually trying to decrease its load. Please use wisely and only if you know what you are doing.

2.8 HTTPS (SSL/TLS) Options

To support encrypted HTTP (HTTPS) downloads, Wget must be compiled with an external SSL library. The current default is GnuTLS. In addition, Wget also supports HSTS (HTTP Strict Transport Security). If Wget is compiled without SSL support, none of these options are available.

A mail delivery agent or message delivery agent (MDA) is a computer software component that is responsible for the delivery of e-mail messages to a local recipient's mailbox.^[1] It is also called a local delivery agent (LDA).

Within the Internet mail architecture, local message delivery is achieved through a process of handling messages from the message transfer agent, and storing mail into the recipient's environment (typically a mailbox).

Implementation[edit]

Many mail handling software products bundle multiple message delivery agents with the message transfer agent component, providing for site customization of the specifics of mail delivery to a user.

Unix[edit]

On Unix-like systems, procmail and maildrop are the most popular MDAs. The Local Mail Transfer Protocol (LMTP) is a protocol that is frequently implemented by network-aware MDAs.^{[citation needed]}

Invocation[edit]

The mail delivery agent is generally not started from the command line, but is usually invoked by mail delivery subsystems, such as a mail transport agent, or a mail retrieval agent.
