Re: [Bug-wget] How to convert-links when the download has finished?

[Giuseppe Scrivano]

it can't be done directly from wget.

If the domain doesn't appear in the pages then sed or perl can be enough.

Another solution/hack can be to place the files you have downloaded on a
local web server, that handles everything as a static file, in a way
that "http://foo.com/bar/baz"; can be accessed as
"http://localhost/bar/baz"; and fool your DNS so "foo.com" points to
"127.0.0.1".  At this point it will be enough to repeat the original
wget command (and hope it will work).

Better solutions are welcome.

Cheers,
Giuseppe
