Ok. I'll try this again. I have text on machine B's Konsole, and wish to view 
this text from machine A so that I can use some of it as a reply to a mailing 
list. If I downloaded email to machine B, as well as machine A this wouldn't 
be a problem, but I don't, and all the email arrives on machine A.

This would appear to be a lost cause, and wish I hadn't started this thread, 
but that's the way it goes I suppose.
