But that would be great for folks like me, if you did! I typically download a URL from the command line, by typing wget URL But if the URL has any spaces or parens or anything that my shell uses for its own purposes, I have to escape them. Or just put quotes around the whole thing wget 'URL' If I forget the quotes (or simply don't notice that it needs them), then it just gives an error and I have to redo it. Like I said, it's no big deal (and most of your readers undoubtedly just click on the links, so don't care). But escaping everything like Sheena Beaston does means I can just do it the first way without thinking about it. It’s not a big deal, so please don’t go to too much trouble.

For example, http://fakepennycomics.com/blog/THBLW_HockIt(YACHTRemix).mp3 is problematic for my shell (because of the parenthesis), but Noah and the Whale - Blue Skies (Yacht remix) comes out http://www.fileden.com/files/2009/7/15/2510004/Noah%20and%20the%20Whale%20-%20Blue%20Skies%20%28Yacht%20remix%29.mp3 so I can download it directly, without worrying about putting parentheses or anything. I wonder if pasta could do that... ;) Ooh, I like how the URLs on Sheena Beaston are encoded, so I don’t have to escape them. For example,
