Summary: Retrieve files from the World Wide Web using HTTP and FTP
 
GNU Wget is a freely available network utility to retrieve files from the
World Wide Web using HTTP and FTP, the two most widely used Internet
protocols.  It works non-interactively, thus enabling work in the background,
after having logged off.

The recursive retrieval of HTML pages, as well as FTP sites is supported --
you can use Wget to make mirrors of archives and home pages, or traverse the
web like a WWW robot (Wget understands /robots.txt).

Wget works exceedingly well on slow or unstable connections, keeping getting
the document until it is fully retrieved. Re-getting files from where it left
off works on servers (both HTTP and FTP) that support it. Matching of
wildcards and recursive mirroring of directories are available when retrieving
via FTP. Both HTTP and FTP retrievals can be time-stamped, thus Wget can see
if the remote file has changed since last retrieval and automatically retrieve
the new version if it has.

By default, Wget supports proxy servers, which can lighten the network load,
speed up retrieval and provide access behind firewalls. However, if you are
behind a firewall that requires that you use a socks style gateway, you can
get the socks library and compile wget with support for socks.

Most of the features are configurable, either through command-line options, or
via initialization file .wgetrc.  Wget allows you to install a global startup
file (/etc/wgetrc on RedHat) for site settings.
