I need help with wget and I hope to find it here. My goal ist to mirror a site (the soon to be replaced website at work) and I tried to do so with wget. I am totally able to mirror the pages and filter out the unwanted file types.

My problem is this: on several pages (e.g. /internal/forms) there are linked files like this /files/12345/form1.docx. So wget doesn't save the file in the folder internal/forms but creates a new folder files/12345.

I understand why this happens but I really need the file in internal/forms and I can't find a solution - is there any way to achieve that? Thank you so much for your help!

Despite the pithy title, this is a unique and educational perspective about creative things you can do with bash.

A script in bash in combination with a script in C can help you solve a sudoku puzzle in a png file.

You can see the script in action in this video.

The main dependency is tesseract OCR, responsible for the oprical character recognition.

Another important dependency is imagemagick, responsible for the necessary image manipulation.

The file selection of the png image is done with zenity.

Feel free to give your feedback.

Yesterday I learned that set -x enables trace for a bash, sh, or zsh script and prints the trace to the terminal.
