I think the other commands will allow you to directly access files
that are not inside of a disk image. For example, to retrieve an HTML
file from a web site:

  SAVER "http://www.somesite.com/somefile.html","COCOFILE.HTM:2",D

I believe this will SAVE the file from the internet onto the disk or
image mapped by drive # 2. I agree that it sounds more like a COPY
operation then a SAVE.

What concerns me is if CoCoNet's roots in Disk Basic will mean you
can't access internet files larger than 153K.
