I haven't used the wget program before, but try adding a comma after your -O. I did
that and I got it working.

I try to call wget using system like this:
system("wget -O /dev/null", "http://janeden.org/test/file.txt";);
This does not work:
Can't exec "wget -O /dev/null": No such file or directory at ./wgetrec.pl line 6.
Ok, so how about this:
system("wget", "-O /dev/null http://janeden.org/test/file.txt";);
No go:
wget: missing URL
Without additional options,
system("wget", "http://janeden.org/test/file.txt";);
works fine.
How can I pass an option to system's first argument in a setting like this?
(I know I can use a module instead of calling wget, but this is a more general issue.)
Thanks,
Jan
