All,

=09Fooling around with a little bash script and I was wondering if it is=20
possible to access web-based information utilizing the cli.  For example,=
 how=20
could I get the following to actually work:

grep "some string" http://www.somesite.com/textfile.txt

the script is just not complicated enough to warrant anything more than b=
ash. =20
Anybody have any ideas?

--=20
