5## You can use this file to change the default behaviour of wget or to
6## avoid having to type many many command-line options. This file does
7## not contain a comprehensive list of commands -- look at the manual
8## to find out what you can put into this file.
9##
10## Wget initialization file can reside in /usr/local/etc/wgetrc
11## (global, for all users) or $HOME/.wgetrc (for a single user).
12##
13## To use the settings in this file, you will have to uncomment them,
14## as well as change them, in most cases, as the values on the
15## commented-out lines are the default values (e.g. "off").
16
17
18##
19## Global settings (useful for setting up in /usr/local/etc/wgetrc).
20## Think well before you change them, since they may reduce wget's
21## functionality, and make it behave contrary to the documentation:
22##
23
24# You can set retrieve quota for beginners by specifying a value
25# optionally followed by 'K' (kilobytes) or 'M' (megabytes). The
26# default quota is unlimited.
27#quota = inf
28
29# You can lower (or raise) the default number of retries when
30# downloading a file (default is 20).
31#tries = 20
32
33# Lowering the maximum depth of the recursive retrieval is handy to
34# prevent newbies from going too "deep" when they unwittingly start
35# the recursive retrieval. The default is 5.
36#reclevel = 5
37
38# By default Wget uses "passive FTP" transfer where the client
39# initiates the data connection to the server rather than the other
40# way around. That is required on systems behind NAT where the client
41# computer cannot be easily reached from the Internet. However, some
42# firewalls software explicitly supports active FTP and in fact has
43# problems supporting passive transfer. If you are in such
44# environment, use "passive_ftp = off" to revert to active FTP.
45#passive_ftp = off
46
47# The "wait" command below makes Wget wait between every connection.
48# If, instead, you want Wget to wait only between retries of failed
49# downloads, set waitretry to maximum number of seconds to wait (Wget
50# will use "linear backoff", waiting 1 second after the first failure
51# on a file, 2 seconds after the second failure, etc. up to this max).
52waitretry = 10

55##
56## Local settings (for a user to set in his $HOME/.wgetrc). It is
57## *highly* undesirable to put these settings in the global file, since
58## they are potentially dangerous to "normal" users.
59##
60## Even when setting up your own ~/.wgetrc, you should know what you
61## are doing before doing so.
62##
63
64# Set this to on to use timestamping by default:
65#timestamping = off
66
67# It is a good idea to make Wget send your email address in a `From:'
68# header with your request (so that server administrators can contact
69# you in case of errors). Wget does *not* send `From:' by default.
70#header = From: Your Name <username@site.domain>
71
72# You can set up other headers, like Accept-Language. Accept-Language
73# is *not* sent by default.
74#header = Accept-Language: en
75
76# You can set the default proxies for Wget to use for http and ftp.
77# They will override the value in the environment.
78#http_proxy = http://proxy.yoyodyne.com:18023/
79#ftp_proxy = http://proxy.yoyodyne.com:18023/
80
81# If you do not want to use proxy at all, set this to off.
82#use_proxy = on
83
84# You can customize the retrieval outlook. Valid options are default,
85# binary, mega and micro.
86#dot_style = default
87
88# Setting this to off makes Wget not download /robots.txt. Be sure to
89# know *exactly* what /robots.txt is and how it is used before changing
90# the default!
91#robots = on
92
93# It can be useful to make Wget wait between connections. Set this to
94# the number of seconds you want Wget to wait.
95#wait = 0
96
97# You can force creating directory structure, even if a single is being
98# retrieved, by setting this to on.
99#dirstruct = off
100
101# You can turn on recursive retrieving by default (don't do this if
102# you are not sure you know what it means) by setting this to on.
103#recursive = off
104
105# To always back up file X as X.orig before converting its links (due
106# to -k / --convert-links / convert_links = on having been specified),
107# set this variable to on:
108#backup_converted = off
109
110# To have Wget follow FTP links from HTML files by default, set this
111# to on:
112#follow_ftp = off
