Hi.

Got what should be a simple curl.

The test sets up to be run using disabled javascript. In a test browser
FF/Opera, with javascript disabled cache cleared the return content is
correct.

Basically, a portion of the returned content in/from the curl, appears to
be missing linefeeds (newlines)

The test curl:

echo '' > aa.lwp
curl -v -A "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:45.0) Gecko/20100101
Firefox/45.0" --cookie-jar aa.lwp --cookie aa.lwp -L "
http://www.bu.edu/link/bin/uiscgi_studentlink/uismpl?ModuleName=univschs.pl"

Checking stackoverflow, as well as different questions/articles didn't shed
any light on this.

The weird thing.. the browser (javascript disabled/cache cleared) works
correctly..

Any thoughts/pointers would be useful..
