wget ~ For Saving Internet Pages

Describing wget, download manager, internet, wget internet, simultaneous wget connection, background wget and using wget.
Just sharing for something that would be useful, it is related to stores Internet pages by using wget, see below :
 
wget -no-parent -wait=20 -limit-rate=20K -r -p -proxy -U Mozilla http://hadi.search4buy.com/
 
In the following explanation:
 
-no-parent
 
Meaning:
No need to access the folders on it (parent).
 
-wait=20
 
Meaning:
Wait 20 seconds before accessing the destination address back to.
This is useful for websites that do not allow the contents drained by applications such as wget
in ways like this.
 
-limit-rate=20K
 
Meaning:
Limiting the bandwidth to download for 20 KByte.
This is useful for websites that do not allow the contents drained by applications such as wget
in ways like this.
 
-r
 
Meaning:
The process is repeated (recursively) for each page.
 
-p
 
Meaning:
Taking all the components needed by the page. Eg
image, css, js, etc..
 
-Proxy
 
Meaning:
Process connection through a proxy, if not using a proxy then this section
not need to use or use -no-proxy.
When using a proxy then the proxy must first configure the
used, for example, we use a HTTP proxy, then the syntax is:
 
For Win32:
set http_proxy = http://192.168.101.9:8080
set ftp_proxy = http://192.168.101.9:8080
 
For Linux:
export http_proxy = "http://192.168.101.9:8080"
export ftp_proxy = "http://192.168.101.9:8080"
 
-U Mozilla
 
Meaning:
Provide information to the destination address that is accessing the application is Mozilla.
This is useful for websites that do not allow the contents drained by applications such as wget
in ways like this.
 
So, hopefully useful.
