Yep, I know curl is not mac-only :) I thought it came from the mac side of things though, but I guess I was wrong. Wget prolly didn't have mac support until the BSD basis, so I think that is where I got my memory. In other words, I believe that early (pre OS X) Macs had cURL but not Wget.
Curl is copyrighted by the author only, not any umbrella org. Wget is GPL'ed! See: http://daniel.haxx.se/docs/curl-vs-wget.html (by cURL's author) and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CURL and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wget My main notes: curl is bi-directional, wget is down-only, but see wput also wget is command-line only, no libs to call it from, whereas curl offers many libs Happy hacking!
