Hi All, I want to use wget to download a particular type of file directly linked from a webpage. Which is really pretty simple. In this case, I would just feed it, wget -r -l1 -A.mp3 [yourwebpagehere] The end result I get from this string is fine, is just what I want.
However, the program seems to want to waste a ton of bandwidth in downloading EVERYTHING linked from the website you feed it, and then as it finishes download it, it removes it if it's not an mp3. Is there any way to tell it, "seriously, if it doesn't end in .mp3, don't even bother to touch it." I want to preserve the bandwidth. Why does wget download it and then reject it ? Can't it check for the type at the download time itself and take a decision based on that ? Please advise if there is a workaround for this. -- -Avinash
