We have lynx here and I have tried uysing it with yours and other Web pages but the terminal emulation may not be set right and whenb new pages overwrite they improperly erase previous material, so that the screenn get5s increasingly more crowded. I am not sure I understand about the files you want me to download and what you want done with them, unless you are basically just talking about an offiste backup of your efforts. We have all those capabilities here on digex (I think - some people have talked about the Web server here), and cowan knows WWW and lynx pretty well. But we have a massive 5 Meg to play with here before we start psying for space, and Cowan's mail archives take up most of that (he cannot keep stuff on his local machine at work, since he isn;t sure that he won't suddenly lose the ability to dial in from work, and he has no home machine =- so he keeps all his stuff worth saving either on the ftp site or on digex. Myself - I have perhaps 100meg of archive stuff on my home machione and keep nothing on the unix box that I don't have to - I find unix still to be fairly impenetrable, because its utilities have such lousy user interfaces, and because, since I capture everything for off-line review, all the control stuff that goes on on-line makes the file VERY cluttered and difficult to read off-line. Straight ASCII works SO much better, but lynx and other unix stuff prefers ANSI or better VT-100 codes that make text capture bad to useless (reading IRC logs off line, backspaces and all, is getting to be a bit of an art %^) At any rate, I will download the files you named, probably tonoite or tomorrow noite. I'll let cowan play with whatever you want done with the gzip/tar file. (I just got a pc version of gzip, thgough I have yet to actually try it).
