RE: [Bug-wget] Suggestion

[Tony Lewis]

I agree with Diego that it would be useful to rewrite file extensions; just
today I was mirroring a site with .aspx and I will have to manually rename
everything to .html so I could open the files locally in my browser. It is
important to do this within wget so that the links in the downloaded mirror
get updated too.

In the meantime, I've got to write a script to do this for me.

Subject: [Bug-wget] Suggestion


Hi,

   I'm a user of your fantastic program.
   I'm from Argentina, so please excuse my poor english!

   I have this suggestion:
   Wouldn't be great if we can specify the extension of the downloaded 
files, for example .htm? (and, ideally, that the relinking feature (-k)
could work with it too)
   I'm thinking this because when we download with -r and the url points
to a wiki style site, whose pages have no extension, we can't get an
associated program to open them.
   Is this clear? (I'm trying my best)
   Is this functionality already in wget and I didn't find it?

   I hope this helps and if this is not the proper way to report this,
 please tell me which is (I got this address from wget --help)

  Greetings,

Diego F.
