[Bug-wget] sudo wget --accept sandwich

[Marcel Partap]

Dear wget devs,
failed to resolve the following issue on my own, thus asking for
assistance. I want to download all .asx-files :-( linked from an uni
internal page. The page doesn't have a suffix.
> wget --load-cookies cookies.txt -A asx -mk -np -l 1 --accept-regex videos -A 
> asx 
> http://www.mfd.mw.tu-dresden.de/mfd/index.php/lehre/wintersemester/videos-winter
This will throw
> Removing

> since it should be rejected.
and exit there.
--accept-regex videos-winter on the other side can not be combined with
--accept asx it seems.
So how do I get around this. This should be a common scenario, i.e. get
all linked PDFs etc. from a web page, skipping all the links to
dynamically generated CMS pages in the menu often placed before the page
content.
& IMHO, wget should simply never filter out URLs explicitly given to it
on the command line.
