Re: [Bug-wget] Wget append system date

[Wilson, Gary]

Hi Angel/Wget

Please note that this command will need to execute within MS DOS, will this 
still work?

wget http://192.168.02/DataLog.html?FileName=Day_Shift_.csv -O Day_Shift-`date 
+%d/%m/%Y`.csv

Does your OS allow slashes inside a filename? Otherwise, it can't be done.

On a POSIX shell you could provide the current date in the output filename like 
this:
wget http://192.168.02/DataLog.html?FileName=Day_Shift_.csv -O Day_Shift-`date 
+%d/%m/%Y`.csv

(replace the / with something else if not supported by your filesystem)
