Using IE9 to save as text the file at
http://git.infradead.org/get_iplayer.git/blob_plain/HEAD:/get_iplayer
results in it getting corrupted with the following added at the
beginning (and corresponding stuff at the end).
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<!DOCTYPE HTML>><HTML><HEAD>
<META content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" http-equiv="Content-Type"></HEAD>

This doesn't seem to happen when saving as text the cgi file at
p://git.infradead.org/get_iplayer.git/blob_plain/HEAD:/get_iplayer.cgi
It's easy enough to just copy and paste the data into notepad++ and
save it as get_iplayer.pl so no major problem, just wanted to point
out people following the instructions at
https://github.com/dinkypumpkin/get_iplayer/wiki/instructions might be
asking why they're getting errors.
