It would be great if -N and -O can be used together. Otherwise, if I save a file with different name, I no longer can check for update, unless downloading the whole file regularly.

Thank you for your effort!

We've addressed this for the next release by disallowing the combination of -N and -O. :)

Wget works fine
wget -N http://xxx/A.zip

Wget always report local file size is zero and redownload the file if
(A.zip exists)
wget -N -OA.zip http://xxx/A.zip

Wget checks the wrong file (A.zip) for file size and create empty Z.zip if
(A.zip exists)
wget -N -OZ.zip http://xxx/A.zip

*Wget works fine if A.zip doesn't exist
