Wget [formerly known as Geturl] is a freely available network utility
to retrieve files from the World Wide Web using HTTP and FTP, the two
most widely used Internet protocols. It works non-interactively, thus
enabling work in the background, after having logged off.
The recursive retrieval of HTML pages, as well as FTP sites is
supported -- you can use Wget to make mirrors of archives and home
pages, or traverse the web like a WWW robot (Wget understands
/robots.txt).
Of course, since this is the latest bleeding edge version, it is
possible that things don't work. Please report them to the maintainer
and to the authors of wget!

[Approved] new port: ftp/wget-devel
devel/wget starts to lag behind the releases of wget.
At least with a development version we are able to figure
out when it is stable enough to ftp/wget updated.
