Sorry, I did not express myself clear enough. This sed thing changes
every line in the "wget-script" script. This, I did easily with emacs
(while sed is much more elegant). My problem is: I do not want to do
hundreds of 
mv package1_1xxxxx3a.deb package1_1%3a.deb
mv package2_1xxxxx3a.deb package2_1%3a.deb and so on

Any idea how to do this automatically?


thanks

That's nothing!  If you play it forward, it'll install Windows 2000.
