Default Can fetch do this ...?

Can fetch simply retrieve a website webpage with the HTML-XHTML-CSS source and save it to a file. I goggle all day about wget, curl but when it came to fetch absolutely no one said it does. The entire world only talk about ftp and files which I take "files" to mean txt, pdf etc. I read the FreeBSD handbook fetch section over 5 times thinking I miss the word "web-page" It was no where to be found. My BSD machines have not been connected for weeks for various reasons. Now it's 3:31am and I got to ask or crack. Common since say it should but can take anything forgranted.

Thanks in advance
