bash wget script problem

Hi,

maybe it's because of your bash version?
I messed around with wget lately, and saw somewhere written that some
things will work only on bash 4 and above.
I don't know bash that well so I don't know whether this is the issue or I
just said something stupid...
What I did was:
wget http://website.com/FILE-{1..20}
That makes wget download all 20 files called FILE-NUMBER and that
have consecutive numbers on their name (NUMBER).
So it was written somewhere that it works only on bash 4 and above.

Ori.
