I need help with linux!!!!!

[Steeve]

So i was wondering if i use the "wget" command and save it to a specific directory like a NAS would the data be first stored on my comp then transferred or just transferred. I only have an 8gb sd card on my raspberry pi and i needed to download lots of anime from a few websites to my NAS. I was planning to make a script or a list of all the links by using  "$ wget https://www.link.com/something{1-15} -O /my_nas_directory". Could i do this or would it not work at all?

Also i am using raspbian jessie with pixel(Kernal version 4.4).

It will write directly to the NAS directory.

Ahh, the world of linux. See, in this community, it's a lot less talking and more RTFMing.

I think the best way to learn linux, is to try it yourself.

Oh shoot, forgot to add on the rest of my answer. Anyways here it is:

 

Since you're on a forum, I'm going to assume you have already tried. Bundled with Jessie, is Python.

Here would be my workflow in your situation (though don't actually know how to program Python; languages without semicolons kill me):

1. Get the program to accept a base link
2. Get the program to accept the largest numbers/range of numbers
3. Use a for loop to print "commands" (wget www.link.com) into a .sh file
4. Use this to make your .sh file executable
5. Profit

Am I as good as theLegend27?

Steeve, man is your friend

 

For info for almost every command you can use on Linux, in the terminal type man *command/program name*

 

[minifang]

steeve did you get this to work? 

 

heres an alternative (assuming you have lynx installed) 

 

user@host:~$ lynx -listonly -dump -nonumbers [your site here]  |grep http |[further filtering here such as grep mp4] >files.txt 

 

then a while loop (bash) 

 

user@host:~$ while read line;do wget <options> $line <any other options> ;done <files.txt 

 
 note: [] used in the lynx command to avoid confusion with the redirect (>) to a file . 

 

sample output of the lynx command above to stdout : 

 

user@host:~$ lynx -listonly -dump -nonumbers www.google.com |grep http
