wget equivelent in AIX?

[catbit]

I want to download some files from the web (http), and I found out
that AIX does not come with wget or curl without installing the Linux
packages.

Any commands that do the equivelent of wget/curl?

Thanks!

You can compile wget from source, that worked for me.

try for example:
perl -e 'use LWP::Simple; getprint($ARGV[0]);' http://myserver.co.uk:8121/xxxx/xxx.html

I found recently useful to recall FTP protocol to get a file ;)

Why not use wget? It runs on AIX too.

AIX does not have wget installed by default.

Yes, but it runs on AIX too (I have claimed nothing more).
