GET is an alias for the perl script lwp-request coming bundled with the
famous and great PERL LWP module. But for triggering chc_forum mail you
don't need that really (and no PERL at all). Every text based browser
will do (e.g. lynx, links or wget), because your cron job does no more
than accessing the URL to the mailer.php script regularily thereby
triggering the mail sending as a side effect.

Have a look at the chc_forum manual
