Subject: Re: Screen scraping an html text contents into a file

I will throw something like this together in Ruby over
the next days when I get some time and post it on
RubyForge. I have already done this sort of stuff in
Java and the concepts just really need a port.All we
are looking at Basi's initial level of requirements is
to send an HTTP get, and pipe the response to a file.

Link following is a little more tricky since you need
to parse the HTML, issue a get, pipe the file, rinse
and repeat, but again not exactly rocket science.
