これは便利！ FreeBSD 8.1 でも問題ありませんでした。 （ wget が必要です）

御報告ありがとうございます。 確かにディストリビューションによってはwgetは最初に入っていないかも・・・。 こういったレポートは非常に助かります。 ありがとうございます。

便利便利！Mac OS X でも動きました!! 確かにMacでもwgetは最初から入ってないのでインストールする必要があります．(多少の面倒がありますがMacPortsが便利です)
..当初，当方の環境ではwgetの初期設定ファイル".wgetrc"が存在し「convert_links = on」としていたため，ファイル取得後にwgetが終了してくれなくて少し悩みました(「そのような初期設定ファイルを作ってあったことさえ忘れてた」という問題でした) (^_^;;

Macは今のところ１台もありませんのでどうしようかと思っていました。 大変助かりました。 h.sugaさんの情報と共にNotebookの情報をアップデートさせて頂きますね！ ありがとうございます！

Okano San could you please explain how you did it with macports? Thank you

Hi Voy,

This is a nice shell script to backup the published program and library. I tried to run this script on my Mac to make sure it works because Shintamainjp said "It SHOULD work on MacOS too".
On this (mbed_backup.sh) shell script, it uses "wget" to download the files from server. This is a UNIX tool but it is not included default environment of Mac.

On the Mac, there are sevaral way to install/manage these kind of tools. In my case, using MacPorts.
I installed "wget" by MacPorts and it works fine but before I could find this script works, I needed to do one thing: modify my setting file "/.wgetrc". It was having "convert_links = on" that let the wget keep waiting after file retrieve. This is what I noticed.
If you don't have such your preference file or you are just after the wget installed, you don't need to this kind of thing.

Hi Tedd I installed wget via MacPorts (sudo port install wget) and it was done perfect. Now i tried to call the sh file from Terminal. It failed. Can you give me some help how to call the script? I am a real newbie with a Mac so i am having a bit of trouble with this system. Thank you

Dear Mr.voy-san

Hi. :) Thank you for your post.

What's the error message?

 chmod a+x mbed_backup.sh
 ./mbed_backup.sh microfreak

Regards Shin.

Hi Shinichiro
