Today around 11:16am, Rob McMillin hammered out this masterpiece:
: I've been reading the docs for the libwww code, and was wondering if
: there is any way to write the output of a request directly to a file on
: disk. The returned data could be potentially quite large and shouldn't
: be stored in memory.
The most simple answer I can give you is:
shell> perl -MLWP::Simple -e "getprint('http://www.web.com')" > file.html
: Also, I would like to know if there is a way to just read headers and
: ignore the rest of the data based on the value of the returned headers.
: The motivation is to avoid downloading files in cases where the
: timestamp hasn't changed.
perldoc HTTP::Headers
I would imagine.
