Aria2 is a great wget
replacement, having a lot of features like multi-threading, split download,download resume, etc
But having all this features and option can make it hard to do some specific commands.
I want to download this XOWA entire folder from here with 10 simultaneous downloads, and the file split in 4 segments from this directory: https://archive.org/download/Xowa_enwiki_latest
To download a single file split in 4 segments I use:
aria2c -s 4 -x 4 https://archive.org/download/Xowa_enwiki_latest/Xowa_enwikibooks_2015-04-07.7z
But I want to download all the directory much like the wget -r
option does but with 10 concurrent download files and 4 segment download per each file, how can I do that using Aria2.

aria2c
does not support recursive download. It does not read the downloaded resource to extract links to other resources.You can prepare the list of links in a text file and then pass it to
aria2c
to download.For more info, see Input File section in aria2 documentation.
