Thread: wget download specific links

hello,

using wget download pdf files. however, seems there problem. using following code:

code:

while read -r link         http_strip="${link##*/}"         output="${http_strip%%.pdf*}".pdf         wget -nc --no-parent -c "$link" -o "$output" done < <(grep \.pdf ./ilist.txt)

the ilist.txt contains address of pages contain pdf files. links in ilist.txt following:

code:

http://amazon.com/shelf/145.12/book.58616/pdf

i trying download pdf file embedded in above webpage. direct link file follows:

code:

http://amazon.com/shelf/145.12/book.58616/check/58616_ftp.pdf?s=1&k=hg4523nx&440f11f6

and want save above file "58616_ftp.pdf".

have links in ilist.txt , not direct links, why using links in ilist.txt , not direct links.

however, after running above code sample page, "pdf.pdf" file saved corrupted file (the size 12k , can not open it).
so, problem is, not save actual file, , second problem filename "pdf.pdf", should "58616_ftp.pdf".

please let me know if have suggestions.
using cygwin on windows.

thank help.
