OK. I just never thought file:// and ftp:// would do the same thing. ELinks and Links2: file:// -> pwd of the shell, but file://home/ -> "No such file or directory". Mozilla: file:// -> file:/// , but file://foo -> file:/// Opera: file:// -> file:/// , and file://home -> file://home (/home). I don't know what's the "right thing". -- How to contact me - http://www.pervalidus.net/contact.html ; To UNSUBSCRIBE: Send "unsubscribe lynx-dev" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
