[Bug-wget] short option for --content-disposition (feature request)
Hi, I quite often use the --content-disposition command line option of wget. It's a bit annoying to type in, but currently it seems there is no short option for it. Could such a short option be added? c and d are already taken and I think also all other characters in content disposition. So I'd like to propose to use -z or -y (just because they're not used yet and easy to remember), but I'd be okay with any other char. -- Hanno Böck http://hboeck.de/ mail/jabber: ha...@hboeck.de GPG: BBB51E42 pgpBM8_Gu6vOU.pgp Description: OpenPGP digital signature

Regards, Giuseppe As well as being able to set an alias in your shell for wget --content-disposition or even set that option in your wgetrc so it applies by default, which is probably what you want.
