I seem to recall that ages before someone posted some ideas (or a hint maybe?) which included a http retriever in bash (using its socket interface). IIRC it was called bget (or maybe bashget?...). It's purpose was providing something akin to wget that is useable right after completing LFS, so that one can fetch further packages and get started with BLFS.
However, I can't find this script anywhere now. I'd be grateful if someone could dig it up. I'll go AFAIK soon for a while, so maybe I won't post into this thread, so -- TIA.
