[Techtalk] Scraping a webpage from a website.

[Jennifer Davis]

AAAAH.  This is crazy.  As I was running wget on the site, I got a phone
call letting me know a cd with the tarball was on its way to my place.  I
am glad I learned about wget.  I use it to update my dynamic ip service. I
should read more about it.


Thanks again,

Jenn
