_I_ didn't know links would do that. It's an infuriatingly
slow browser, and nc is very fast, so given the choice...

I'm seeing a script that will run the equivalents of 'ls -l' or
'ls -lR' on any path, and then call wget to bring down whatever
file you choose from a menu. And allow you to enter an alternate
port, if necessary.
