Hi guys,

Sorry that this is not a typical linux question its a Unix one but,
what the heck - some bright spark would know ;~o

I'm going to download a file which has spaces and square brackets
in the file name, such as  Part one[1].zip

But when I specify that in lynx it objects, what should I put in place
of the literal filename to get the destination file correctly:-

lynx -dump http://www.someplace.com/Part one[1].zip > Part-1.zip

?



Kind Regards  ~`:o)

Some say there is no magic but, all things begin with thought then it becomes
academic, then some poor slob works out a practical way to implement all that
theory, this is called Engineering - for most people another form of magic.
