There is no "man wget" on Windows :-)
And unfortunately the GNU Windows port of wget I have (version
1-5-3-1) does not have that --page-requisites parameter.
I thought this whole thing would be easy with all those Python
internet modules in the standard distro: httplib, urllib, urllib2,
FancyURLxxx etc. Being able to download a "complete" page *from
Python source* would be very nice for my particular application.
