Hello,
I'm running OSR 5.0.7. and I want from the command line to run a http call and put the response in a file, Does that command that I'm looking for exists ?
Yes.
I use wget. I can't recall if it included in MP3. Otherwise, download it from www.sco.com skunkware.example :
{command} http://12.12.12.12/web_app/serial.asp?nSerial=12345678 > /usr2/tmp/goit
cat /usr2/tmp/goit
It comes with mp3!, wget -o /usr2/tmp/gotit http:/.......
Thanks so much!
Lynx's -dump is useful if all you really want is the text or if you would like to extract the links of the page, etc. Lynx has many options and several competitors: http://aplawrence.com/Words2005/2005_03_21.html
If wget is what you want (for getting the actual page), be sure to read the man page - it has numerous options. I mostly use it for downloading big images that might fail or be interrupted; something like
nohup wget -t 0 -c http://somewhere/something_big_and_ugly.z
is often very useful.
