Hi Eli,
I have a ton of code that uses wget. I don't have an elisp version of
wget yet, but I am trying to write one. I am working on two things at
the same time now:
1. a function eshell/fakewget that will run a minimalist fake wget
written in Lisp,
2. a way to download a wget.exe that works that can used in eshell.
I prefer to have both of them instead of just one.
Cheers,
Eduardo Ochs
