Thanks Stuart, however when I do

wget -O lond '
http://source.loncapa.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/~checkout~/loncom/lond?rev=1.445;content-type=text/plain
'

wget -O lonnet.pm '
http://source.loncapa.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/~checkout~/loncom/lonnet/perl/lonnet.pm?rev=1.1071;content-type=text/plain
'

But
wget -O lonpickcourse.pm '
http://source.loncapa.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/~checkout~/loncom/interface/lonpickcourse.pm?rev=1.98;content-type=text/plain
'

works.

Can't spot where the typo is? Any ideas?
