I have a list of files in a directory. I only want each wget to retrieve 10 of the files, so I want to use parallel to put 10 of the files on wget's command line.
I tried specifying the base with -B, but it seems to ignore it. how do I specify a base with files on the command line? I've wanted to do this before ..... where several files I want to fetch are in 1 dir, and I only want to type the dirname 1 time, so how does one do this in wget? Thanks... linda
