| - | ====== wget - Download and Store With a Different File name ====== | ||
| - | |||
| - | By default wget will pick the filename from the last word after last forward slash, which may not be appropriate always. | ||
| - | |||
| - | Wrong: Following example will download and store the file with name: download_script.php? | ||
| - | |||
| - | <code bash> | ||
| - | wget http:// | ||
| - | </ | ||
| - | |||
| - | Even though the downloaded file is in zip format, it will get stored in the file as shown below. | ||
| - | |||
| - | <code bash> | ||
| - | ls | ||
| - | </ | ||
| - | |||
| - | Displays: | ||
| - | |||
| - | < | ||
| - | download_script.php? | ||
| - | </ | ||
| - | |||
| - | |||
| - | Correct: To correct this issue, we can specify the output file name using the -O option as: | ||
| - | |||
| - | <code bash> | ||
| - | wget -O taglist.zip http:// | ||
| - | </ | ||
