-non-interactive commandline tool, so it may easily be called from
-scripts, cron jobs, terminals without X-Windows support, etc.")
+ "Wget is a non-interactive tool for fetching files using the HTTP,
+HTTPS and FTP protocols. It can resume interrupted downloads, use filename
+wild cards, supports proxies and cookies, and it can convert absolute links
+in downloaded documents to relative links.")
