Hello,
How i can make a program that the user can download files, like wget that the user type this: wget http://www.testpage.com/file.pdf and the program download the file, i want this syntax, my program name and the site, then the user press enter and my program start the file download, please if you are going to post the code, please post the full code, because i'm starting in C++ development.

Thanks,
Nathan Paulino Campos

Hello bithub,
Thanks because of the wget source code, but what i want is only the code of a very simple download program, because i'm starting in the C++ development, than i want to learn, and while i get better in C++, i improve the aplication, you understand.

Thanks,
Nathan Paulino Campos

So you want someone to sit down and write you a sample file downloader? Give me a break. If you want to do it "by hand" look into sockets and the http spec. Otherwise, use an existing library/utility.

wget is not exactly a complex application. If you want a "very simple download program" then wget is exactly what you want.

Except apparently you don't want to play with it, so much as have somebody else play with it and hand you the result?

On Windows, just use Shell api (1 line of code) or COM or Net (10 lines)
