snarf is a command line resource grabber. It can transfer files through the http, gopher, finger, and ftp protocols without user interaction. It is small and fast.
The snarf homepage is http://www.xach.com/snarf/
On FREESCO the snarf command is integrated in the packages system, the dyndns client and possibly some more. It can be used to download stuff from the [linux] command line directly on your FREESCO disk.
There are some known issues with snarf and certain username/password combinations as required for the DynDNS client. Usually changing your DynDNS account name or password resolves this issue.
