Yes, that was mostly a joke, though the much smaller file size is nice. But snarf still is my first choice for such a program. I don't know that I'll end up adopting the package, though. From the changelog & control file it looks like somebody else already tried to adopt it, and made an upload, though they never sent an ITA or closed the wnpp bug. How annoying. noah -- _______________________________________________________ | Web: http://web.morgul.net/~frodo/ | PGP Public Key: http://web.morgul.net/~frodo/mail.html
