Run wget in background

I wanted to download an new Linux distro but was thinking can’t it be done in the background? Yes it can be done like this:

wget -bc http://whatyouwant/distro.iso

• -b : Go to background immediately after start up. If no output
  file is specified via the -o, output is redirected to wget-log.
• -c : Resume broken download. This is useful when you want to
  finish up a download started by a previous instance of Wget, or by
  another program.

You can use somedisk space by adding the q parameter, then it looks like this:

wget -bcq http://whatyouwant/distro.iso

• -q : Turn off Wget’s output aka save disk space.

This is short explained how to run wget in the background for more information on wget you can check the man pages.
