CocoaWget is a front-end application for GNU wget. You can use it to download entire websites or parts of websites for offline viewing. wget is included in CocoaWget, so you do not need to prepare wget.
CERNIUK Interesting app and a welcome alternative to Web Devil which is a wee bit over priced.
Problem is this app doesn't download. You can add items to it's download queue all day and they sit there with a status of "waiting". I left my test download sit in its queue for 24 hours waiting.
This app gets a 2 only because the interface effort gives hope that the app will work some day. (Version 2.7)
CERNIUK After copying the application out of the disk image and onto my hard disk, the start button now seems to work and the downloads commence.
- Downloading HTTPS seems to fail if the server uses a self signed cert.
- The Start button can be pressed prior to adding items to the queue and the subsequent addition will execute almost immediately.
- After the first time the log for a download appears, the next logs will erase the log list and then erase themselves (Version 2.7)

CBX322 This app comes with newest wget 1.10.2 works fine except one thing:
Preferences -> Options -> only a single option is recognized, i.e. if you add:
--no-check-certificate --no-dns-cache
in that field, the app gives an error: '--no-check-certificate --no-dns-cache' option unrecognized. This might be a problem with a variable, interpreting the string only as one option.
