Now I'm trying to scoop the current Dilbert into a file, and again
things don't seem to work.

I try "sitescooper -site site_samples/comics/dilbert.site -filename dilbert"

and it trys (and miserably fails) to build an iSilo DB for me.  My
fault.  I just want a GIF file.  So I check the site file, and sure
enough it says "ImageOnlySite: 1", which is good, because I just want
an image -- no sourrounding junk, because then I can't do the right
thing with Plucker.

So I figure I have to use "-dump".  So I try "sitescooper -dump
-noheaders -nofooters -site site_samples/comics/dilbert.site -filename
dilbert", and wind up with a file containing

That's it.  No images, no links, nothing.  OK, so I try

"sitescooper -dump -html
-noheaders -nofooters -site site_samples/comics/dilbert.site -filename
dilbert"

I get more random text, but nothing remotely useful.  I look to see if
there is a "-gif" (or -png, or -jpeg) output format, but no soap.  So
how do I get a comic image into a form useful for Plucker?  That is, a
raw image?  Am I the first person to have asked these questions?
