What's the correct tsnetget syntax

[JJS]

ok

1. don't just copy paste---> the copy of the website of techstrategies 
gives an error due to the strange double quote they use

“File has been downloaded” instead of  "helpdownloaded" <-- do you see 
the differnece in the quotes? i hope it stays seeable in this list

I just saw it when i was retyping the line of text to find out where the 
erro unquoted literal came from, cause i could not see any difference.

2. Still i'm curious about  libURLDownloadToFile if it does not work 
good due to tsnet (if that is why it is not working good)


have to test some more
