R help - Sep 2012 - Auomatic Download of climate netcdf4 files from the Climate Explorer Website

Dear R-helpers,

I am trying to download some netcdf4 files from the Climate Explorer
Website:

http://climexp.knmi.nl/start.cgi?id=someone at somewhere

In fact, there are 78 distinct files. I have found a way to download a
particular file and open it in R, but I have been informed that there exists
some code to automatically download all the files. Do you have any clue
regarding how to achieve that? 

Thank you in advance.

I'm not sure about R code, but wget (http://www.gnu.org/software/wget/)
should work. Here are some examples:
