Short: Invoke Wget from WWW browser Author: Thomas Aglassinger Uploader: Thomas Aglassinger Type: comm/www Version: 2.4 Requires: dev/gg/wget-bin.lha, util/libs/ReqToolsUsr.lha, util/rexx/rexxdossupport.lha Architecture: m68k-amigaos Kurz: Startet Wget aus WWW-Browser TITLE WgetRexx VERSION 2.4 AUTHOR Thomas Aglassinger DESCRIPTION WgetRexx is an ARexx script to invoke Wget from your favourite Amiga WWW browser. It is designed in a way that you can easily maintain a copy of the interesting parts of the WWW on your local hard drive. This allows you to browse them without having to start your network, without having to worry if documents are still in the cache of the browser, without having to figure out the cryptic name of a certain document in your cache directory and without having to deal with slow, overloaded or/and unstable connections. FEATURES If configured properly, WgetRexx allows you to download pages with images or whole web sites with one mouse click. NEW FEATURES - Fixed bug causing endless loop - Fixed bug when downloading dynamic web pages - Added script to generate index document for Web: SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS You need an open network connection, either Miami or AmiTCP, and one of the following WWW browsers running when invoking the script: - AWeb - IBrowse Other browsers are not supported yet because they currently lack sufficient ARexx-capabilities (like Voyager). Some additional libraries are required. All of them can be obtained from Aminet: - util/libs/ReqToolsUsr.lha - util/rexx/rexxdossupport.lha - util/libs/ixemul-#?.lha Of course you need Wget. It is part of the Geek Gadgets project, but can also be obtained from Aminet: - dev/gg/wget-bin.lha - dev/gg/wget-src.lha Refer to the manual for more details. AVAILABILITY - Via FTP from every Aminet-mirror, file "comm/www/WgetRexx.lha", for example: ftp://wuarchive.wustl.edu/pub/aminet/comm/www/WgetRexx.lha - Via WWW from the WgetRexx Support Page: http://www.giga.or.at/~agi/wgetrexx/ PRICE Freeware.
