The resulting page is incomplete. Thus, for example, at [Workaround 1], where the the following command line is specified: $ wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/corefonts/ {andale32.exe,arial32.exe,arialb32.exe,comic32.exe,courie32.exe, georgi32.exe,impact32.exe,times32.exe,trebuc32.exe,verdan32.exe, webdin32.exe} only the following text appears: $ wget http:// { georgi32. webdin32.exe} The HTML code for that text is: <p> $ wget <a rel="nofollow" href="http://downloads.sourceforge.net/corefonts/">http://<wbr />downloads.<wbr />sourceforge.<wbr />net/corefonts/</a><br /> {<wbr />andale32.<wbr />exe,arial32.<wbr />exe,arialb32.<wbr />exe,comic32.<wbr />exe,courie32.<wbr />exe,<br /> georgi32.<wbr />exe,impact32.<wbr />exe,times32.<wbr />exe,trebuc32.<wbr />exe,verdan32.<wbr />exe,<br /> webdin32.exe}</p> The problem is triggered by the <wbr /> tag. Where one of these occurs in the HTML, all subsequent text is omitted until either a <br /> or a <a ...> tag is reached (and of course there may be others). As there are 956 <wbr /> tags in this document, much of the text is missing after pasting. If the all the <wbr /> tags are removed from the page, copying and pasting works fine. I shall be grateful for help with the problem, as it means that that with LibreOffice copying and pasting is unreliable.
