I found that you can create a "share to Facebook" link with this: https://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=${URL} And "share to Twitter" with this: https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?url=${URL}&text=FreeDOS%20FDISK%201%2e3%2e2&hashtags=freedos And "share to LinkedIn" with this: https://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?mini=tre&url=${URL}&title=&summary=FreeDOS%20FDISK%201%2e3%2e2&source=FreeDOS ...where *${URL}* is an encoded URL. No Javascript or "phone home" required. :-) Jim
