I don't believe that "wget" will or even can convert any files to anything. I believe, but I may be mistaken, that there is a way to do the converting with either "nano" or the "vim" programs. I'm just curious, why do you need it in a .txt format// or is it just to see if you can do it, or because that you simply want to??
