Is there a way to get boost libraries with wget via some ftp server? I am on linux and want to write a script to grab the source directly.

boost is hosted on sourceforge and I've seen the script that sets up the boost documentation system do exactly that, wget from sourceforge. (it uses another tool to do the download, but I changed it to wget because of a proxy and it worked). the script is somewhere in tool/doc, or doc/tool or whatever, you should find the exact location in the chapter about boostbook in the boost documentation.
