I am using a linux machine and followed the instructions for a Mac. I used the xed to find and replace my username and password. I also tried using Geany with the same results. I may have been doing something wrong. The following was returned after the prompt ./getljxml.rb:

./getljxml.rb: line 7: syntax error near unexpected token `newline'
./getljxml.rb: line 7: `<!DOCTYPE html>'

Hey! So my best guess is that somehow your getljxml.rb file got broken somehow. I've just tested it on my Mac, and I'm not seeing an error like that.

Try opening this URL: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/papatangosierra/livejournal-archive-tools/master/getljxml.rb

If you can, try copying and pasting the entire contents of that file into a new text file, save it as getljxml.rb, and go from there. Let me know if that doesn't work and I'll try to figure out what's going on! (And thanks for letting me know there was a problem!)
