wget is available from the GNU site.


Decrypt the data

The script "decrypt_data.pl", which can be obtained from HEASARC, allows you to decrypt Suzaku data encrypted with PGP (Pretty Good Privacy) or GPG. You need PGP or GPG to run decrypt_data.pl (how to obtain PGP or GPG). For the usage of decrypt_data.pl, please follow the instruction on the HEASARC page.
