Re: [Bug-wget] Unsupported listing type problem

[Tim Ruehsen]

Hi Marcell,

if you could give me user/password to access that FTP server for testing 
purposes, I could very easily have OS/9 support built into wget. Of course, 
you should send that to me privately.

The current workaround - if you are working in a *nix like environment - is to 
download the .listing, parse the filenames and load each one separately.

Something like
for f in `cat .listing|tr '\r' '\n'|grep '0\.0'|awk '{print $7}'`; do
  echo wget {your options} ftp://server/directory/$f
done

The 'tr' command is to convert MACOS9 and OS/9 end-of-line into unix end-of-
line.

Regards

        Tim
