Vendor: Scientific Linux
Description:
Web applications built using Libwww: Robot, Command line tool,
line mode browser.  The Robot can crawl web sites faster, and
with lower load, than any other web walker that we know of,
due to its extensive pipelining and use of HTTP/1.1.

The command line tool (w3c) is very useful for manipulation of
Web sites that implement more than just HTTP GET (e.g. PUT,
 POST, etc.).

The line mode browser is a minimal line mode web browser;
often useful to convert to ascii text.  Currently unavailable
until someone updates it to some new interfaces. (hint, hint...)
