Localhost can be omitted, and you'd see three slashes in a row, and the software will presume it's presence where it ought to be. Also, another hostname could be used, and so long as it was accessible, it could be used, instead. e.g. file://server/bookmarks.html -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
