|
|
* `-t X`, number of `X` attempts to download a file.
|
|
* `-c`, try to continue a partial download.
|
|
* `-N`, only downloads the target file if the file is newer than a file with he same name on your target drive.
|
|
* `-v`, display all informations (default).

Download the target file to the current directory
|
|
```Bash

wget http://example.com/folder/file
|
|
```
