I'm sorry I missed that. Indeed, on the one "OS X" I ever tried to run
wget on, it didn't have wget.
Perhaps url-retrieve can be used instead. I have no time right now to
code it right, but here's a (synchronous) example with url + filetype +
filename all hardcoded :
(with-current-buffer
(url-retrieve-synchronously
"http://www.cnrtl.fr/images/css/bandeau.jpg")
(delete-region
(point-min)
(progn
(re-search-forward "^$" nil 'move)
(point)))
(write-file
(expand-file-name "~/tmp/foobar.jpg"))
(pop-to-buffer
(current-buffer)))
using url-retrieve (which is asynchroneous) might also lift the
requirement on async.el
