Hello,

I've been playing a lot with busybox lately, using it as toolkit in order to write a small "rescue" script for a program, that connects to a server and makes reports, or downloads the program again.

Since curl is not included in busybox, I rely on the wget implementation, which does allow to post data, and make basic authentification.

It would be really nice if the included wget implementation could include digest authentication in order for passwords not being sent.

Thank you.
