Command-line based web browser
cURL is a purely command line based tool, which can be used to fetch the content of a page to a file:
curl http://ltl.tkk.fi > LabHomePage.html
cURL can be also used to fetch images:
curl -O http://ltl.tkk.fi/Pictures/penguin-smooth.png display penguin-smooth.png
When using proxy servers
If you use TKK's proxy server (wwwproxy.hut.fi), and you want to access LTL databases, you need to add
ltl.tkk.fi, boojum.hut.fi
to your browser's "No proxy for:" list. If you are using Firefox, this list can be found from Edit->Preferences->Connection Settings.
