If you're not using MS Internet Explorer (MSIE) browsers, you can
specify a name in the headers, using the Content-Disposition header,
like this:
print rejoin [
"Content-Disposition: attachment; "
{filename="} form last split-path File #"^""
]
But if you're using MSIE, you've got a problem as MS doesn't understand
Content-Disposition
as per specifications. Instead, MSIE uses the
first file name in the URL to name the file! There's some work arounds
that can be done to overcome this, such as renaming one's CGI to be the
same as a directory, (but I haven't managed to make this work yet).

Maybe no blank line? Or perhaps too many?
