wget: Basic Startup Options
2.3 Basic Startup Options
=========================
‘-V’
‘--version’
Display the version of Wget.
‘-h’
‘--help’
Print a help message describing all of Wget’s command-line options.
‘-b’
‘--background’
Go to background immediately after startup. If no output file is
specified via the ‘-o’, output is redirected to ‘wget-log’.
‘-e COMMAND’
‘--execute COMMAND’
Execute COMMAND as if it were a part of ‘.wgetrc’ (⇒Startup
File). A command thus invoked will be executed _after_ the
commands in ‘.wgetrc’, thus taking precedence over them. If you
need to specify more than one wgetrc command, use multiple
instances of ‘-e’.
