If I want to download all files in a directory of a website, i have to perform a long wget command, they is what I do at first:
wget -nd -r -l1 --no-parent http://www.foo.com/mp3/
This works fine, but sometimes it gives some silly index.@xx files that wish I do not want. To make your directory clean, if you knows the file format you want, you can do this:
wget -nd -r -l1 --no-parent -A.mp3 -A.wma http://www.foo.com/mp3/
I am going to explain briefly what is the meaning of the options I speficied.
-nd no directory, by default wget creates a dir
-r recursively download
-l1 (L one) level 1, download only of that particular folder, don’t go depth on it.
–no-parent I definately don’t want the parent’s files

Very helpfully.
But i didn’t understand the following part -A.mp3 -A.wma.
What is meant with the Letter “A”?
Thanks in advance.

A statistic: only 1 out of 10 dumb americans can spell “definitely” correctly.

The -A option allows you to specify which types of accepted files should be downloaded. In this case, all files with the .wma and .mp3 file extension will be downloaded.
