I use "mutt" for reading my emails and "urlview" to help me select (and cache in WWWOFFLE's Outgoing List) any URLs - mentioned in the emails text - that I want to download when I am next online. Regrettably, "urlview" has a (known) bug; it adds a VT (ASCII 09) to the end of every URL so that all the mentioned URLs are displayed in a table (in w3m). By clicking on a line in the table, the "URL + VT" are cached in WWWOFFLE. Some web-sites ignore the unwanted VT; some do not and notify that the URL does not exist. I realise that it is unreasonable to ask WWWOFFLE to develop a routine for overcoming a "urlview" bug, but there could be an indication in the WWWOFFLE lists that the unwanted VT is present. Any <comments|advice> will be gratefully received. Felix Karpfen -- Felix Karpfen Public Key 72FDF9DF (DH/DSA)
