+ When converting a file, back up the original version with a `.orig'
+ suffix. Affects the behavior of `-N' (*Note HTTP Time-Stamping
+ Internals::).
`-m'
`--mirror'
Exclude the domains given in a comma-separated DOMAIN-LIST from
DNS-lookup (*Note Domain Acceptance::).
-`-L'
-`--relative'
- Follow relative links only. Useful for retrieving a specific home
- page without any distractions, not even those from the same hosts
- (*Note Relative Links::).
-
`--follow-ftp'
Follow FTP links from HTML documents. Without this option, Wget
will ignore all the FTP links.
+`--follow-tags=LIST'
+ Wget has an internal table of HTML tag / attribute pairs that it
+ considers when looking for linked documents during a recursive
+ retrieval. If a user wants only a subset of those tags to be
+ considered, however, he or she should be specify such tags in a
+ comma-separated LIST with this option.
+
+`-G LIST'
+`--ignore-tags=LIST'
+ This is the opposite of the `--follow-tags' option. To skip
+ certain HTML tags when recursively looking for documents to
+ download, specify them in a comma-separated LIST. The author of
+ this option likes to use the following command to download a
+ single HTML page and all documents necessary to display it
+ properly:
+
+ wget -Ga,area -H -k -K -nh -r http://SITE/DOCUMENT
+
`-H'
`--span-hosts'
Enable spanning across hosts when doing recursive retrieving
(*Note All Hosts::).
+`-L'
+`--relative'
+ Follow relative links only. Useful for retrieving a specific home

`-I LIST'
`--include-directories=LIST'
Specify a comma-separated list of directories you wish to follow
Following Links
***************
- When retrieving recursively, one does not wish to retrieve the loads
-of unnecessary data. Most of the time the users bear in mind exactly
-what they want to download, and want Wget to follow only specific links.

For example, if you wish to download the music archive from
`fly.cc.fer.hr', you will not want to download all the home pages that
`wu-ftpd'), which returns the exact time of the specified file. Wget
may support this command in the future.

-Startup File
-************
-
- Once you know how to change default settings of Wget through command
-line arguments, you may wish to make some of those settings permanent.
-You can do that in a convenient way by creating the Wget startup
-file--`.wgetrc'.
-
- Besides `.wgetrc' is the "main" initialization file, it is
-convenient to have a special facility for storing passwords. Thus Wget
-reads and interprets the contents of `$HOME/.netrc', if it finds it.
-You can find `.netrc' format in your system manuals.
-
- Wget reads `.wgetrc' upon startup, recognizing a limited set of
-commands.
