SH DESCRIPTION
I Hget
retrieves the web page specified by the URL
I url
and writes it, absent the
B -o
option, to standard output.
The known URL types are: http and ftp.
PP
If
I url
is of type HTTP and the
B -p
option is specified, then an HTTP POST is performed
with
I body
as the data to be posted.
PP
The
B -o
option is used to keep a local file in sync with a
web page.  If the web page has been modified later than the
file, it is copied into the file.  If the file is up to date
but incomplete,
I hget
will fetch the missing bytes.
PP
Option
B -d
turns on debugging written to standard error.
PP
Normally,
I hget
uses the IP stack mounted under
BR /net .
The
B -x
option can be used to specify the mount point of
a different IP stack to use.
PP
Option
B -v
writes progress lines to standard output once a second.
Each line contains two numbers, the bytes transferred so
far and the total length to be transferred.
