The content provided currently at the website includes HTML beatufication (such as colours) which raises questions on the fidelity of the file. I think the easiest alternative is to use "svn export": 1. If you want to grab http://svn.gtk.org/viewvc/gtk%2B/trunk/m4macros/gtk-2.0.m4 you need to convert this to svn://svn.gtk.org/svn/gtk%2B/trunk/m4macros/gtk-2.0.m4 2. Then type $ svn export svn://svn.gtk.org/svn/gtk%2B/trunk/m4macros/gtk-2.0.m4 A gtk-2.0.m4 Export complete. $ _ and you are done. If this is really useful, it might be good to create an "svnget" script that autoconverts/grabs the URL.
