ML Transcript:
In this RUclips tutorial, Jean-Christophe Chouinard teaches how to install wget on Windows. They explain that wget is a free tool that helps you download files from websites using the command line.
To install wget on Windows, you need to download the executable file from a website and add it to the system32 folder on your computer. Jcchouinard provides a link to the article that contains all the necessary information for the tutorial. They also explain how to download and install wget on Mac using Terminal commands.
The speaker demonstrates how to check if wget is already installed on your computer by using the command prompt and typing "wget -v". If wget is not recognized as a command, you need to download it.
Once you have downloaded the wget executable file, you can move it to the system32 folder by copying and pasting it. Jcchouinard shows how to do this step by step.
Finally, the speaker explains that you can check if wget is installed correctly by typing "wget --help" in the command prompt. This will display all the possible functions you can use with wget.
Overall, this tutorial provides a clear and concise guide to installing wget on Windows.
