[melbourne-pug] How to get a link to a downloadable file using Google Code Search (or similar)

[Paul]

Hi Tennessee,

I did a search and found this question asked a few times over the last few years in the Google Code Search Google group. I didn't find an answer, but maybe a closer search of the group would find something.

Cheers,

Hi all,
I'm trying to work out how to extract a link to an actual, downloadable, .py file using Google Code Search. Am I missing something obvious? For example, if I perform the following search:

http://www.google.com/codesearch?as_q=&btnG=Search+Code&hl=en&as_lang=&as_license_restrict=i&as_license=&as_package=&as_filename=feedparser.py&as_case=

I get a list of matching files, with links to a page giving more information each search result, e.g.

http://www.google.com/codesearch/p?hl=en#pijz8v3Ot8w/trunk/subscriber/feedparser.py&q=file:feedparser.py&sa=N&cd=1&ct=rc

Neither of these pages seems to contain any means to simply download the matched file as a file. Sometimes the file will be buried inside a .tgz archive, or perhaps I need to visit the root of the svn web server then manually visit links until I get a direct link to the file. I also can't figure out how to use the page google gives me to get the content of the file.

Any simple suggestions? 

Thanks,-T
