	The ~~following linux shell script takes~~ the ~~hassle out of linking~~ to ~~papers on the arxiv:~~		The best way to learn the wiki syntax is to follow by example.

	~~To use it copy~~ the ~~above text into~~ a ~~file, say <code>arxiv.sh</code>. Then at the command line run <code>chmod u+x arxiv.sh</code> to made the script executable.
