wget works in the background when "-b" option is used (or I have
understood that option wrong).
-b
--background Go to background immediately after startup. If no
output file is specified via the -o, output is redirected to wget-log.
I wasn't using that when I made that launcher. I was using only the "-c"
option so that whenever that launcher is restarted the download resumes.
