URL::Grab is a Perl module that drastically simplifies the fetching of files.

URL::Grab project is designed to be used in programs that need common (but not necessarily simple) URL fetching features.

It is extremely simple to drop into an existing program, and provides a clean interface to protocol-independent file access.

URL::Grab came into existence as the part of Config::YUM that downloads remote
yum-configs and header files, but it quickly became clear that this is a
general problem that many applications must deal with.

Yes, URL::Grab has been heavily inspired by the famous Python urlgrabber.
