Here is what I want to do: Let's assume that we have a directory structure like this: http://url.to.download/something/group-a/want-to-download/ http://url.to.download/something/group-a/not-to-download/ http://url.to.download/something/group-b/want-to-download/ http://url.to.download/something/group-b/not-to-download/ http://url.to.download/something/group-c/want-to-download/ http://url.to.download/something/group-c/not-to-download/ I would like to download all of the files from the want-to-download subdirectories of groups a, b and c. I dont want to download anything from the not-to-download subdirectories of groups a, b and c. There are a lot of groups so it would be very painful to use -I or -X as these options - as I know - require a full path definition which would be different for each wanted and not-wanted directory because of the different groups. My question is how could I automate the downloads, what should I write in the command line? Thanks for your answer. Please send a copy to my email address ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) since I am not subscribe to the wget list. IG
