I'm writing a bash script and at some point I need to use wget for several urls.
The thing is that wget returns information to the terminal output and saves the htlm code into a file.
I want for every url I use to perform something like sed option to wget in order
to save the name of the file the code is saved as well as the size of the file as well
For example,for a call llike
the output is something like this:
So the code is saved in index.html and the size is 12866
But how can I save this information?(file name and size)
I tried sed and awk but nothing works

Reason: code tags
Is the filename really relevant here? The URL didn't contain one, so wget saved a default name. For URL's with no filename, you could've told it -O index.html and then you'd know. For URL's with a filename, extract it from the URL.
