wget-1.5.3

Notes:

  • 2001-Jan-24: obsoleted by wget-1.6-1 in the official net-release. Get it at one of these sites, in the 'contrib/wget' directory. Note that as of Jan 24, 2001, it is not yet official; it is a test release. You must specifically choose it in the setup.exe program in order to install.

  • 2000-Dec-3: wget has been added to the usr-local package.
