Isn't "wget" a command you type at the promt to access the web or ftp?
im only asking because i want to see if my dabblings into UNIX/Linux/Darwin are paying off .

wget is really an extremely useful tool. I use it regularly for downloading files either via http or ftp and it works great for recursively sucking web sites down to a local drive. I primarily use it when logged in to a remote server via SSH to download files from web sites to the remote server but I also use it locally for downloading ISO images etc, and because it's command line you can slap it into a script for a cron job etc...
A neat little trick is to have a shell prompt open and your browser. Instead of downloading large files through your browser just "copy link location" by right clicking on the file URL then type "wget " at the shell prompt and paste in the URL and bingo. But there are many many other ways to use it.
