I succeeded in checking it out, and had a quick look at it. There shouldn't be big problems merging things to one SGML file (and thus abandoning cpp and lynx etc.) I hope to look more in-depth tomorrow, and maybe already do some merging. No promises though, I've got loads of other things to do.

I'm regularly in some "insecure" environment with X-terminals, and I've figured out that the most secure thing is using an ssh-agent on a specific machine (X-terminals send _everything_ in cleartext, but there is one specific route in the network where there "can't" be any sniffers. You don't want to know more ;-). So, what exactly do you need? Regards, Anne Bezemer
