@ -548,6 +548,13 @@ is used as @var{file}, documents will be printed to standard output,

disabling link conversion. (Use @samp{./-} to print to a file
|
||||
literally named @samp{-}.)
|
||||
|
||||
Use of @samp{-O} is @emph{not} intended to mean simply ``use the name
|
||||
@var{file} instead of the one in the URL;'' rather, it is
|
||||
analogous to shell redirection.
|
||||
@samp{wget -O file http://foo} is intended to work like
|
||||
@samp{wget -O - http://foo > file}. @file{file} will be truncated
|
||||
immediately, and don't expect timestamping to work with it.
|
||||
|
||||
Note that a combination with @samp{-k} is only well-defined for
|
||||
downloading a single document.
