browserless applet

[ic...@netrover.com]

A few years ago I asked this newsgroup if it was possible to get applet
like application downloads without using a browser + plugin. I'm
giving a talk at a local LUG next month and thought that this would be
useful to add to my bag of demos.

My recollection was that if you were dealing with trusted sites, a 20
line Tcl program would do the trick.

I remember trying it and thinking that this would be handy to keep
around. Now I can't seem to locate the script. I did a quick
look around the wiki and can't pin down what I want.

It is likely that things have evolved over the intervening years, but
if anyone can point me in the right direction it would be much
appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

I have not understood what the script you are looking is supposed to.
Download files? Being an "applet" (tclet?) and a standalone script at
the same time? A script that runs without tcl installed??
