wid_tool.py is tool for downloading images in Wikipedia articles. Upto date usage instructions can always be found by running

$ python3 wid_tool.py -h

The requirements are the following:

• A quite new version of Python 3
• lxml
• cssselect

Let's download all images from a particular article:

$ python3 wid_tool.py https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_screw_drives

We should be able to find all the images downloaded in the current folder. There is also a url ending filter available. Let's download only the SVG files from the article above:

$ python3 wid_tool.py -f svg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_screw_drives

Now only files with their corresponding urls ending with svg should be downloading.
