 *****************
 
 When retrieving recursively, one does not wish to retrieve loads of
 unnecessary data.  Most of the time the users bear in mind exactly what
 they want to download, and want Wget to follow only specific links.
 
    For example, if you wish to download the music archive from
 'fly.srk.fer.hr', you will not want to download all the home pages that
 happen to be referenced by an obscure part of the archive.
 
    Wget possesses several mechanisms that allows you to fine-tune which
 links it will follow.

 
* Spanning Hosts              (Un)limiting retrieval based on host name.
* Types of Files              Getting only certain files.
* Directory-Based Limits      Getting only certain directories.
* Relative Links              Follow relative links only.
* FTP Links                   Following FTP links.
