hi
I have programmed a script using wget which each day downloads the newest megatokyo and one or two other webcomics. it's fairly simple, but its very cumbersome and inefficient to download all comics to date, because each webcomic uses a different format for naming and archiving their comics. so i've been trying to employ recursive downloading in wget by doing, for example:
wget -r http://ctraltdel-online.com/images/comics/.
and it just tries to download index.html
wget -r http://ctrlaltdel-online.com/images/comics
same
wget -r http://ctraltdel-online.com/images/comics/
same, and finally
wget -r http://ctraltdel-online.com/images/comics/ .
i just can't seem to find how to get wget to work, and the manpages really aren't that descriptive. i feel like n00b (something i haven't experienced in awhile lol)
thanks a lot :blink: :unsure:
