[Loic Dachary (OuoU) <loic@debian.org>]

Package: moreutils
Version: 0.23
Severity: wishlist

        Hi,

        A short, self explanatory, example

       $ wc -l $(url2file http://specs.dachary.org/url2file/index.html)
       9234

        url2file has been most usefull to me and I would like to 
add it to moreutils. The development URL is at 
http://specs.dachary.org/url2file/ and the manual page follows. Let
me know what you think.

        Cheers,

        
        
url2file(1)                                                        url2file(1)

NAME
       url2file - wget a URL into a file an print the filename

SYNOPSIS
       url2file [-C] URL

DESCRIPTION
       Given  a  valid  URL,  fetch it using wget(1) and store it into a cache
       directory. The file of the file in the cache directory  is  printed  on
       the stdout.

       If  called  with  the  -C  option clears the $HOME/.url2file cache com-
       pletly. By default, files not accessed during the last seven  days  are
       removed from the cache.
