If you installed the LWP module it comes with a script lwp-download. It takes a URL as an argument and saves the downloaded file do disk.
I would start there.

For example, a text file will contain the following lines: <http://www.latimes.com/news/printedition/national/20030715/20030715A01.pdf> <http://www.latimes.com/news/printedition/national/20030715/20030715B01.pdf> <http://www.latimes.com/news/printedition/national/20030715/20030715C01.pdf> The perl program should read each line and download each pdf file to a default folder on the desktop. Can anyone help me with this?
