Didn't notice a reply to this. I'm assuming you want the 'rendered source' as the html which is downloaded is usually heavily modified after the fact by scripts running the browser. You might want to give this Safari plugin a try:

http://www.awarepixel.com/safari/bettersource/

It adds some controls to the Safari toolbar, one of which is "Better Source Generated" which pops a new window or tab with all the source code and line numbers. The annoying bit is that the line numbers are actually injected as a blob at the beginning of the page so if you select all and paste into your favorite editor you can strip all that off the top until you hit the opening <html tag. Depending on what editor you use, the easiest way to do that might be to search for "<html" which usually will select it, then arrow left to put your cursor before the opening < and then do a shift+home to select all the junk at the top. Then you can just delete it. What's left is the actual HTML in use at the time you did the copy command.

Say,

Does anybody here know how to save the actual text from a web site source code? 
 I can access the source code of a web site and examine it in Safari if I first 
turn curser tracking off.  But, what I'd like to be able to do is to focus on 
that source code text and actually save it to a file so I can take a good look 
at it.

Thanks.
