Hi Brandon,

I tried that. I got an HTML page. :'(

I just tried fetching that page as the sole wget parameter with no
switches and it downloaded as a regular text file.

Can you post an example of where it returns HTML?

Hi Brandon,

In Firefox, I right clicked on the link, saved
as eraseme.sh. You get the picture.

I did get the script with the long wget command. I did
have to go in with vi and whack off a bunch of stray
line on the top.

Baffling. You must have mis-clicked on the link, and selected "Save page as" rather than 
"Save link as".

Alternatively, left-click on the Plain page, see just all the plain text, then 
right-click "Save page as."

Similarly, with wget, simply:

     $ wget

Please try again for a sanity check for all those who have experiences 
different from yours!

Hi Chris,

   Made me look.  It wouldn't be the first time.  Tried it again
to make sure.  No symptom change.

   I was linking on "Save Link as".  I am running
Firefox 29.0.1 from the Mozilla ftp site binaries.

   Anyway, I was just wondering if anyone had come up
with a better wget run line.  Guess I am asking "theoretical
question".

   The script doesn't work anyway.
