Sounds good. I am worried that even with the iostream integration the proposal won't have Doug's one-line wget implementation, but we'll see.
Fortunately, Doug wrote "one slide," not "one line."
std::ifstream is( "http://www.example.com/file.zip" ); std::ofstream os( "file.zip" ); os << is.rdbuf();
No proposal required, in principle.
Except that any code involving an identifier spelled "rdbuf" fails the "do the obvious thing in an obvious way" test. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com
