Ouch, I never thought of that. Wget opens files in binary mode and handles the line termination manually -- but I never thought to handle ^Z. As much as I'd like to be helpful, I must admit I'm loath to encumber the code with support for this particular thing. I have never seen it before; is it only an artifact of DOS editors, or is it used on Windows too?
