fetch aliases?

[Darren Weber]

For a variant in the InsightToolkit, it would be useful to get all the data
files from here:
http://public.kitware.com/pub/itk/Data/BrainWeb/

ie:

[image: [DIR]]Parent Directory
<http://public.kitware.com/pub/itk/Data/>  - [image:
[ ]]BrainPart1.tgz<http://public.kitware.com/pub/itk/Data/BrainWeb/BrainPart1.tgz>19-Mar-2002
10:12 5.6M [image: [

Is it possible to specify a fetch filename alias to get all the files like
"BrainPart*.tgz"?

Would you override the fetch phase in a variant, maybe something like:

variant braindata {
   fetch {
      exec wget -r -l1 --no-parent -A.tgz
http://public.kitware.com/pub/itk/Data/BrainWeb/
      # some code to put these downloads in the right place, like
${distfiles}
   }
}


Thanks in advance,
Darren
