RE: [abcusers] problem downloading .ABC files
Yet another way would be to let the browser display the abc text, then save that as a file, making sure that you save as text (rather than source).

Another approach, if it is Netscape, is to hold down the shift key while you click on the link to the file. The save file dialog should appear.

RE: [abcusers] problem downloading .ABC files
That is because, probably on the server side, the file is being sent as "mime/txt" which your browser recognizes as something it can display so it does. Just right click on the link, and select "save target as..." from the resulting menu. John A. On Tuesday, September 19, 2000 1:35 PM, Alberto Duran [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] wrote: > great.
