shell html grabber

[chrisw669]

any idea how i can grab lets say yahoo.com/index.html from a shell and put it into a file on my local system to be read later? i can do this with local files already but am unable to do it with remote files (

There is this neat little utility in *nix called wget. Or you can use the LWP modules.
