Dear Folks,
I am trying to write a script to, among other things, non-interactively
download a file using a web link. Specifically, the file is a compressed
archive of firefox, and the link is:
http://www.mozilla.com/products/download.html?product=firefox-2.0
1) If it doesn't work in wget, you're doing something wrong.
2) You want the Perl LWP/Mechanize module. (Mechanize works on top of
LWP and does much more than you need, but I like it ;) )
3) Clicking the link in a borwser opens a webpage for me, not
downloads a file. The download starts a bit later
