GNU Wget is a network utility to retrieve files using HTTP and FTP, with reget options and more. Now with SSL support! Port by different authors.

This software is distributed in two modes:
  • as compressed package that you have to download and manually install; if prerequisites are required, you will have to manually install them too;
  • as RPM package; you can install it using your favorite rpm package manager, that will take care to download and install both the software and its prerequisites.
Choose the installation mode that you prefer. Please note that not all the versions are available in both the installation modes.

Installation with rpm

This program is installable using the rpm package manager. See below for the install string. Required prerequisites are automatically processed by the package manager and, if needed, downloaded and installed.

Manual installation

Program is distributed as ZIP package: See below for download link(s).

Unzip *.exe PATH folder and \SSL\*.dll in LIBPATH folder and create file .WGETRC (from \doc\sample.wgetrc) in \HOME folder, setting preferences in it.
With --save-ea (save-ea=on in .wgetrc), wget saves url of downloaded file in .URL extended attribute.

For complete syntax, see \doc\wget.html.

You can install the prerequisites with rpm running the following string in a command line:

yum install libc

WGet v. 1.10 (3/12/2007, Andreas Ludwig) Readme/What's new
This is wget v1.10+devel compiled for OS/2 using Innotek GCC. The main new feature of 1.10+ (revision 2328) over 1.10.2 is support for handling headers of the form 'Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="somefile.xyz" '. I use WGet daily to download files from a site that uses this feature (Save.tv) and file names work perfectly well now (except for the usual OS/2 codepage issues). This version also includes support for transfering large files (ie >2gb) using FTP or HTTP (successfully tested for both protocols). Wget_ssl.exe includes ssl support from OpenSSL v0.9.8. Slightly bigger version containing debug code are included in a separate directory. I used Paul Smedley's unix porting environment available at http://download.smedley.info/buildenv_20071022.zip Requirements: - Innotek GCC runtime ftp://ftp.netlabs.org/pub/gcc/libc-0_6_3-csd3.wpi (The WarpIN version of WGet will check for the libc*.dll to be installed via WarpIN as well - use the zipped version in case of difficulties) - iintl6i.dll http://smedley.info/iintl6i.zip Restrictions: - No support for IPv6 - restriction of OS/2 and eComStation - NLS based message files missing - will hopefully be fixed in the future - No OS/2 / eCS specific enhancements (ie. saving URLs into file EAs) - to be done in a future build You can get the sources from the subversion repository using svn co -r 2328 svn://addictivecode.org/wget/trunk wget_local_source_dir (A port of subversion for OS/2 and eComStation is available from http://www.smedley.info/os2ports/index.php?page=subversion ) Enjoy!

WGet v. 1.9.1 (18/1/2005, Nikolay Kolosov (nickk)) Readme/What's new
GNU wget 1.9.1 for OS/2 - a network utility to retrieve files using HTTP and FTP. The build is compiled by VAC 3.6.5, so no EMX dll required This wget build is supposed to support large files (over 2gb). Files in this distribution: wget.exe wgetssl.exe - wget.exe with ssl support. Requires SSL dll's (see in SSL directory). Build by nickk, dev.nul@mail.ru. If you found a bug, please email me the results of wget -d -N <your keys> <your url> New options: "--parse-files" to do additional url parsing for making more good looking file names. Use this option if you have any troubles with creating files while downloading bad looking url's. Generaly you do not need this option. Added support for <IMAGE ...> tag (the non-standart <IMG ...> variant). --save-ea (save-ea=on in .wgetrc). when this option is on, wget saves url of downloaded file in .URL extended attribute. Added buffer flushing to avoid losts of unfinished files during system traps. Use --no-flush to switch this off. --flush-period sets the insterval between buffer flushing in seconds. Def is 10 seconds. --caseless - try to do all caseless. Also changed compared to original wget: - set greater timeout values by default. This solves problem with downloading files via active ftp - fixed downloading urls with double slashes inside. - added large file support
