[Jprogramming] Size limit on stdin?

[John Randall]

Lorin:

I strongly suggest not rolling your own for this type of application: it
requires a lot more than opening sockets.

I use wget, which can be integrated into J (at least on Linux) with
something like

NB. fetch URL contents using wget
geturl=:[: 2!:0 'wget --output-document=- --quiet "'"_ , ] , '"'"_

s=:geturl 'http://google.com'

s is now a string containing the URL contents.  If you play around with
the command line arguments to get what you want, you can write a verb.

Best wishes,

John
