Hi
I am trying to run wget for dos, but my ISP uses a proxy server for web and I'm not sure how to set that in DOS (in UNIX I just put it in the .wgetrc but since this file doesn't exist for the DOS version of wget I think I need to set the environment variable - unfortunately I don't know what it is called... ) - thanks for any help

Dave

Type in wget --help | more and it will list all the switches the program supports, including all switches needed to setup the proxy.
