The result of running on the linux system is as follows: ttt

This is the same issue as #259 and has been fixed in pull request #262. Similarly, I've fixed #264 in pull request #266. Both of these issues leave the tool broken, so if you want a quick fix for both just replace the wayback_machine_downloader.rb file with this gist (which is basically just a combination of #262 and #266).

@hartator your tool is currently broken because of these issues, so could you please merge #262 and #266 to get it working again?
