parallel wget in perl

[yacob sen]

Hi ALL,

I am trying to fetch data from an ftp server by Parallelizing wget  inside a perl script.

Here is what I have tried (the snippet of the perl script):

my $year= '2013';

 my $day='01'

@teams =( 'aa', 'bb', 'cc');

There are as an example three files in the ftp server of the format:

aa01.txt

bb01.txt

cc01.tx

which I want to download. 

I have tried the following:

system " echo  @teams  | parallel --eta -j+0  wget ftp://xxx.xx.xx/pub/${year}/{}${day}.txt";

but  wget tried to fetch "aa bb cc" as one file:

 

ftp://xxx.xx.xx/pub/2013/aa%bb%cc01.txt

 => `aa bb cc01.txt'

No such file `aa bb cc01.txt'.

Regards

Yacob
