It could be a little while. I have been busy recently and I haven't had time to fix all of the bugs and make all the changes that I want to make for the next version. > Still i think a 'pipe interface' for user plugin scripts could > enable users to script small but urgent modifications and the same > time may even ease your life a little...at least there would be more > fun for coders like Dan :) There would emerge a 'plugin archive' and > you could choose to inbuilt the more useful and reliable ones. It would be quite slow, the parsing of HTML is not simple and every web page needs to go through the process so it would slow things down. If a perl script needs to be started to do the parsing of every HTML page there would be a big overhead. I also don't think that there are enough people who would make use of the pipe facility to modify pages. Most people seem to run their WWWOFFLE with the page modifications disabled. There is a Firefox extension that can modify pages which might be an easier way to make "small but urgent modifications" http://greasemonkey.mozdev.org/. -- Andrew. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Andrew M.
