I'm a TOTAL newby with gnu. Basically I'm a windows XP typical user and I wanted to download some specific files from a specific website without typing all the urls. So I got hold of the latest wget for windows there http://xoomer.virgilio.it/hherold/ which is the 1.9.1 complete (I had the 1.7 version but it wouldn't seem to behave properly as there was a ? character in the starting url). And well I went mad not getting why my command line wouldn't work. I eventually used wGetGUI to go through that nightmare. But I wanted to get why it didn't work and here's what I found out : wget -r -l1 -A.AVI -H -Dwearepes.com "http://www.wearepes.com/iboard/index.php?showtopic=7767&st=0" would work but wget -r -l1 -A.avi -H -Dwearepes.com "http://www.wearepes.com/iboard/index.php?showtopic=7767&st=0" wouldn't work !!! (actually this script was used for downloading videos of tricks for a soccer game on the playstation 2... not something really important :) ). The only difference is that I typed the extension using lower case letters ! And didn't found any explanation in the documentation I read. So bug or feature ? Thanks for your help :)
