Once you know how to change default settings of Wget through command
line arguments, you may wish to make some of those settings permanent.
You can do that in a convenient way by creating the Wget startup
file---`.wgetrc'.
Besides `.wgetrc' is the "main" initialization file, it is
convenient to have a special facility for storing passwords. Thus Wget
reads and interprets the contents of `$HOME/.netrc', if it finds
it. You can find `.netrc' format in your system manuals.
Wget reads `.wgetrc' upon startup, recognizing a limited set of
commands.
