[Datastream #SSJ-700608]: help downloading images from SSEC Data Center

Hi Boris,

Other than the need to change your '-A' flag definition to: -A "*.goes13vis", I 
do
not know why this invocation does not work.  I'll need to check with our web 
person
to see if there is something behind the scenes that is preventing this from 
working
as the man page for wget says.

Until I find out what may be going on behind the scenes on idd.ssec.wisc.edu, 
the
simplest thing to do would be to:

- create a file whose contents are the URLs you want to download

  For instance, a file that has lines that are the URLs for each file in
  the idd.ssec.wisc.edu/uniwisc/urequest/20160401 would look like:

http://idd.ssec.wisc.edu/uniwisc/urequest/20160401/201604010000.antarcticir
http://idd.ssec.wisc.edu/uniwisc/urequest/20160401/201604010000.antarcticvis
http://idd.ssec.wisc.edu/uniwisc/urequest/20160401/201604010000.arcticir
http://idd.ssec.wisc.edu/uniwisc/urequest/20160401/201604010000.arcticwv
 ...

- specify the --input-file option to wget:

wget --input-file=./wgetlist --user=xxxxx --password=xxxxx 
--no-check-certificate --no-parent -- 
idd.ssec.wisc.edu/uniwisc/urequest/20160401

Again, I'll check with our web administrator to see if there is something
going on that would prevent simple forms of 'wget' to download the entire
contents of uniwisc/urequest subdirectories on idd.ssec.wisc.edu.

Cheers,

Tom
