Something like
wget avc.com | tar xvf
?Almost, I think.
Didnt think this would ever work
This is what we call UNIX-way
TAr stands for Tape Archive. Tapes store data sequentially. Downloads are done sequentially.
It's really just like a far away tape drive.
I usually suppress output of either wget (-q) or of tar (no v flag), otherwise I think the output gets mangled and looks funny (you see both download progress and files being extracted).
