     1.4 +Wget is a network utility to retrieve files from the web using HTTP(S) and FTP,
     1.5 +the two most widely used internet protocols. It works non-interactively, so it
     1.6 +will work in the background, after having logged off. The program supports
     1.7 +recursive retrieval of web-authoring pages as well as FTP sites -- you can use
     1.8 +Wget to make mirrors of archives and home pages or to travel the web like a WWW
     1.9 +robot.
    1.10 +Wget works particularly well with slow or unstable connections by continuing to
    1.11 +retrieve a document until the document is fully downloaded. Re-getting files
    1.12 +from where it left off works on servers (both HTTP and FTP) that support it.
    1.13 +Both HTTP and FTP retrievals can be time stamped, so Wget can see if the remote
    1.14 +file has changed since the last retrieval and automatically retrieve the new
    1.15 +version if it has.
    1.16 +Wget supports proxy servers; this can lighten the network load, speed up
    1.17 +retrieval, and provide access behind firewalls.
