How to do a recursive download with gwget (wget frontend)?

Question

I usually run wget with the -np -r options, but it doesn't include a preview of the queue size, so I'm checking out the wget frontend gwget (on debian). I can't get the recursive option to work; does anybody know how to do it?

Answer 1

EDIT Unfortunately, my initial test was a bit hasty. It seems that Gwget has a bug:

The following directions should work but doesn't seem to:

1. Open Gwget
2. Press the "New" icon or select Archive -> New from the menu.
3. In the URL box put the URL of the site that you want to recursively download.
4. Press OK.
5. A Dialog Box should appear with various options for recursive download.
6. Choose one that makes sense for you.
