Need wget help for download a script
Hi All, Can someone tell me how I can download this script https://git.fedorahosted.org/cgit/livecd/tree/tools/livecd-iso-to-disk.sh with wget and just get the script, not all the numbers and HTML stuff. This is what I have come up with. Seems there should be a better way. # wget https://git.fedorahosted.org/cgit/livecd/tree/tools/livecd-iso-to-disk.sh -O- | html2text -nobs -style pretty -width 132 | cut -c10- | more Many thanks, -T -- ~~ Computers are like air conditioners.

Re: Need wget help for download a script
you could also get it from the livecd image.

I did have to go in with vi and whack off a bunch of stray line on the top. And, although the script does create a Live USB, the stick won't boot. So, poop. The current version does boot, but the persistence, although there, does not work. -- ~~ Computers are like air conditioners. They malfunction when you open windows ~~

I did have to go in with vi and whack off a bunch of stray line on the top. Baffling. You must have mis-clicked on the link, and selected "Save page as" rather than "Save link as". Alternatively, left-click on the Plain page, see just all the plain text, then right-click "Save page as." Similarly, with wget, simply: $ wget https://git.fedorahosted.org/cgit/livecd/plain/tools/livecd-iso-to-disk.sh --2014-06-02 18:30:07-- https://git.fedorahosted.org/cgit/livecd/plain/tools/livecd-iso-to-disk.sh Resolving git.fedorahosted.org... 140.211.169.199 Connecting to git.fedorahosted.org|140.211.169.199|:443... connected.

Hi Chris, Made me look. It wouldn't be the first time. Tried it again to make sure. No symptom change. I was linking on "Save Link as". I am running Firefox 29.0.1 from the Mozilla ftp site binaries. Anyway, I was just wondering if anyone had come up with a better wget run line. Guess I am asking "theoretical question". The script doesn't work anyway. -T -- ~~ Computers are like air conditioners.
