[Bug-wget] wget option "-p" incompatible with compression?

[Jens Schleusener]

Hi,

sorry, the below described wget behaviour may not be a real bug:

I use often the wget option

 --page-requisites

("-p") but for some test purposes I now added also the option

 --header='Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate'

Now wget downloads and saves for e,g, a file named index.html (not 
index.html.gz) but in "gzip compressed" format. But wget doesn't seem to 
detect that and so cannot find other files that are necessary to properly 
display the given HTML page. Any hints to circumvent that behaviour 
respectively to force decompression of compressed files after download?

Regards

Jens
