There's also a MSYS/minGW version of wget, too, if the cygwin style doesn't feel right to them.
I think MSYS looks more Windows-like than cygwin.
IIRC MSYS avoids those /cygdrive/C/ paths that cygwin uses.

    Thanks, Paul. I will pass that on to the those involved. I suspect
    they will want something that will work under MS Windows as well
    (which httrack was supposed to do), but it seems even that may be
    possible: a Windows version of wget exists.

If it's now just gibberish, it's the software's fault.
