Hi

I use wget in a few of my applications and the check I use to see if
wget is present is in the !Run file:

If "<Wget$Dir>"= "" THEN Error error message.

One of my users has wget in their Libary directory inside !Boot so my
check fails to spot wget and they get that error.

Is their a better way to check for wget, either in the !Run obey file or
in the main application file in BASIC to check for wget?

Thanks.
