So I'm trying to download the alloc.asm file so that I can cat it with
my wlppgen file but the website requires you to login in order to
download the file and so when I use "wget
https://www.student.cs.uwaterloo.ca/~cs241/a10/lib/alloc.asm" it ends
up giving me the junk login page instead of the correct contents.

I tried using a modified version of "wget --user=xxxx --password=xxxx
[URL]" but that gave me the same result..

How can I download the alloc.asm file?

Just download it on your local PC and then use scp or Filezilla or
something like that to copy it over. Or copy it and paste it into Putty
by right clicking if your text editor allows it (apparently emacs does
at least).

Or go to MC and download it directly to your cs folder from a thin
client or Mac.
