The reason is, as I just discovered, wget does not allow you to create a
filename like a browser might.
Instead wget downloads the url and with dropbox that is a long series of
characters that is quite a mess in the end.

The second idea, it is indeed in an email, might be the solution.
Can I type links instead of weget..which I have not used before?
You can certainly do that, but why use a browser if a specialised
downloader works (and I have no idea if links does this different
from lynx).
wget does not have any user interface to speak of, it just
downloads the URL given, then immediately exits back to pine.
