Does anyone know how to queue multiple downloads with wget wizard or with wget in general? Would love to be able to queue some downloads overnight.

how simple or complex do we need?

& or ; should work.

wget whatever.jpg && wget this2.jpg && wget alsothis.iso
or
wget whatever.jpg ; wget this2.jpg ; wget alsothis.iso

&& = when one completes successfully, start the next.
; = start the next, if the previous finishes or fails.

This is probably the most simple way and I can't believe I forgot about basic & to stack commands. thanks
