I don't know if anyone in this community has heard of REBOL (http://
www.rebol.com). 

REBOL seems ideally suited for such scripting tasks. For example, the page 
(http://www.rebol.com/oneliners.html) lists a number of one liners that show 
the potential.

Here is a oneliner (#6 from the oneliners.html) to Save web page text to a file:

remove-each tag page: load/markup http://www.rebol.com [tag? tag] write 
%page.txt page


REBOL is cross platform and is under 1MB. Having support for REBOL in Babel may 
be useful. 

Disclaimer: I have no connection to REBOL's development. I have used it as a 
portable solution for producing HTML documentation from plain text (Makedoc - 
http://www.rebol.net/docs/makedoc/fastmd.html).
