search Web for a file type and download them

HIת

For a project I'm working for, I now manualy search Web for strings
".ps.Z" (compressed postscript files).Normally these are found on FTP://
.. Then I go page by page and download these files one by one,then
process them.
I need to create code that will do it automatically and download
found files .
I was thinking of something like 'WWW::Mechanize' .
Will appreciate advise on searching and downloading the found files -
possibly with some sample code.

Thanks

Have a look at the wget program: http://www.gnu.org/software/wget/
