Windows script help

I need to download multiple files (loads) off an internet site.
I want write a little noddy while/do script so I can kick it off and leave it(have quite a bit of ksh script experience) but don't know any of the syntax.

Kind of thing I'm aiming for is (excuse the trickycode)

while read url
do
download/save $url
done < input_file

Anyone help me out ?
TIA

Re: Windows script help

First, get this.

Code:

 

Set /P XURL=Enter URL^>

:do

.... call wget with correct parameters....XURL variable holds the URL to fetch

Set /P XURL=Enter URL[Hit ENTER to terminate]^>

if %XURL%=="" goto end

goto do

 

:end

echo Done.

Re: Windows script help

Hmm no wget in windows....... [EDIT: Seems I was wrong there :P]

Personally what I do (on Linux) is get the wget sourcecode, comment out the bit about it having to do what robots.txt says, then I would just point wget at the site using the mirror switch.

In windows, hmm would look at 3rd party apps - used to be one called Black Widow I used about 10 years ago that was an "impolite" web spider.
