One may or may not need to post-process the list. For this example, I do. The output is a list of links that wget didn't even try to retrieve based on the command line criteria so there is no status code. > A comprehensive reporting facility has often been requested.

The output file could then contain a list of all URLs that were examined by wget. Would something like the following be what you had in mind? 301 http://www.mysite.com/ 200 http://www.mysite.com/index.html 200 http://www.mysite.com/followed.html 401 http://www.mysite.com/needpw.html --- http://www.othersite.com/notfollowed.html
