I need to download about 100 packages so I'm using wget-list to make it easier. My question however, is once I've made the list (I assume it's in a .txt format), is there a way I can insert comments into it that wget will ignore? Something like this:
#This is a comment
http://someurl.com
http://anotherurl.com
I just started writing bash scripts and have a little question about the text editors. I now use gedit which I really like (don't like emacs for some reason), but I do miss some function for inserting/removing comment signs (in this case # for bash scripts) on a whole block of text. For example in Matlab you can simply mark a whole block and comment/uncomment all of it at once. Is this possible in gedit (via some plug-in or something?), or maybe in some other nice editor you can recommend?
View 7 Replies View RelatedI usually develop python code with emacs, emacs being in python code. On my desktop a version is installed and/or configured that way, so I easily can choose a region in the code and simply click on a menu option to comment out this block of code (i.e. at the begin of each line in the selected code two '##' are put). That is very convenient.
However, on my Laptop, running F12 and emacs 23.1.1, this menu option is missing! I searched within google and found the hint that by pressing 'C-c #' I also can comment out a selected region. But on my emacs it says: 'C-c # is undefined'. Am I missing something? Anyone any idea how to fix/install/update/solve this problem, so I can easily choose a couple of python lines and comment them out?
If a wget download is interrupted (like if I have to shutdown prematurely), I get a wget.log with the partial download. How can I later resume the download using the data in wget.log? I have searched high and low (including wget manual) and cannot find how to do this. Is it so obvious that I did not see it? The wget -c option with the wget.log as the argument to the -c option does not work. What I do do is open the wget.log and copy the URL and then paste it into the command line and do another wget. This works but the download is started from the beginning, which means nothing in the wget.log is used.

I have a website that I need to go to often and disable a monitor. To disable I need to login to the website-> click on monitor -> then uncheck a box.
I am told that I can do this through a scipt using the WGET command. I got the parameterized query and then tried to execute it through a *.sh script.
The script generates a php file in the location from where it is executed. When I go to the site and check the monitor is not disabled.

View 1 Replies View RelatedA friend of mine put up a bunch of mkv files on a public server, how can i download them all with one wget command?
I have tried
wget -r [path]
which simply grabs the index file, robots.txt and skips the mkvs. I also tried
wget -r -A.mkv
If i try getting a individual file directly it works fine, what am i doing wrong here?
Let's say there's an url. This location has directory listing enabled, therefore I can do this:
wget -r -np [URL]
To download all its contents with all the files and subfolders and their files. Now, what should I do if I want to repeat this process again, a month later, and I don't want to download everything again, only add new/changed files?
I was unable to find an answer to something that (I think) should be simple:
If you go here: [URL]
like so:
wget [URL]
you'll probably end up with a file called "download_script.php?src_id=9750"
But I want it to be called "molokai.vim", which is what would happen if I used a browser to download this file.
Question: what options do I need to specify for wget for the desired effect?
I'd also be ok with a curl command.
Example: [url]
This was what I tried...wget -A rar [-r [-l 1]] <mediafireurl>
That is to say, I tried with and without the recursive option. It ends up downloading an HTML page of a few KB in size, while what I want is in the range 90-100 MB and RAR.
What happens with MediaFire for those who may not be aware, is that it first says
Processing Download Request...
This text after a second or so turns into the download link and reads
Click here to start download..
How to write a proper script for this situation.
I'm trying to download all the data under this directory, using wget: [URL] I would like to achieve this using wget, and from what I've read it should be possible using the --recursive flag. Unfortunately, I've had no luck so far. The only files that get downloaded are robots.txt and index.html (which doesn't actually exist on the server), but wget does not follow any of the links on the directory list. The code I've been using is: Code: wget -r *ttp://gd2.mlb.***/components/game/mlb/year_2010/
