What would the code look like to do a system call for wget?

Int web;


Web = syscall(SYS_wget, "http://192.168.0.12/test.jpg"); 

Like this ?

I'm assuming that you're using the http protocol in which case it's
just a standard http request.

You could also use the "system" call from within C and actually call wget.

If you really want it in C, then the simplest approach would be to
look at the source code for wget.
