That's a bit subtle, though. The -A pattern apparently has to match everything in the URL after the final /, *including* the query-part ("?..."), which strictly speaking isn't part of the file name. But the documentation of -A/-R (in 1.16) describes it as a pattern to match the file name: -A acclist --accept acclist -R rejlist --reject rejlist Specify comma-separated lists of file name suffixes or patterns to accept or reject. Note that if any of the wildcard characters, *, ?, [ or ], appear in an element of acclist or rejlist, it will be treated as a pattern, rather than a suffix. In this case, you have to enclose the pattern into quotes to prevent your shell from expanding it, like in -A "*.mp3" or -A '*.mp3'. Then again, what does -A/-R match against in a URL "http://example.com/file.pdf?a/b/c"? It seems like this needs something like "Note that this is matched against the entire part of the URL following the final slash; for URLs containing queries, it may not be the final component of the path part of the URL."
