Hi, | ||
|
||
we are happy to announce the release 2.1.0 of GNU Wget2. | ||
|
||
Wget2 is the successor of GNU Wget, a file and recursive website | ||
downloader. | ||
|
||
Designed and written from scratch it wraps around libwget, that provides | ||
the basic functions needed by a web client. | ||
|
||
Wget2 works multi-threaded and uses many features to allow fast operation. | ||
|
||
In many cases Wget2 downloads much faster than Wget due to HTTP2, | ||
HTTP compression, parallel connections, use of If-Modified-Since HTTP header | ||
and more. | ||
|
||
Wget2 has several new command-line options, see the wiki page for a list and | ||
comparison with Wget. | ||
|
||
Wget will be maintained further. The idea is that breaking changes and new | ||
functionalities go into Wget2 / libwget. | ||
|
||
Except for WARC and FTP, Wget2 is a drop-in replacement for Wget in most cases. | ||
Of course there may be subtle differences, so make sure to test well before | ||
replacing Wget by Wget2. | ||
|
||
GNU Wget2 is licensed under GPLv3+. Libwget is licensed under LGPLv3+. | ||
|
