Well... `--post-data' currently affects all the URLs in the Wget run. I'm not sure if that makes sense... perhaps it should only apply to the first one. But I'm not sure that makes sense either -- what if I *want* to POST the same data to two URLs, much like you want to POST to one and GET to the other? Maybe the right thing would be for `--post-data' to only apply to the URL it precedes, as in: wget --post-data=foo URL1 --post-data=bar URL2 URL3 In that case, URL1 would be POSTed with foo, URL2 with bar, and URL3 would be fetched with GET. But I'm not at all sure that it's even possible to do this and keep using getopt! What do the others think?
