Is there a way to change file name of things you download before you start downloading?
like when you download fiyqhgguyewyqg.zip
you click and it downloads file named abc.zip

What the fuck do you want to happen, something magically rename them to what you want for you?

Yes, based on page title.

man wget

It doesn't sound important until you have to save hundreds of files with useless names.

Does wget going to parse the page i'm downloading from and get the right filenames and download links? I don't think so.

How is it anymore effort than  looking through the page yourself and clicking on it? Write some parsing logic yourself if you have to automate it
