Hi -
I've been struggling to download data from a protected site. The man pages
intruct me to use the --http-user=USER and --http-passwd=PASS options when
issuinig the wget command to the URL. I get error messages when wget
encounters special chars in the password. Is there a way to get around this
sounds like a shell issue. assuming you are on a nix, try 'pass' (so
shell passed the weird chars literally. If you are on Windows, it's
another story.
