You can use the ftp functionality within the lynx, with a y, browser to do the below: The only command line app I hate with a passion is the command line ftp client. I'd rather use a gui ftp client under winblows to get files off of ftp sites, and the only time I use the command line client is when I know the exact path of the filename, and not for unfamiliar servers. If a better ftp client was written, i.e. Allowing one to use arrows to select the file or dir, and press enter on it to download. ------------------------------- Alex Snow
