Nick, Get into Lynx (any screen will do) and type 'h' for help. You can learn more than you want to know there. To download, highlight the link you want to download and type 'd'. If you press 'enter' on a link that cannot be displayed, you will be asked to type 'd' to download, or 'c' to cancel. HTH Chuck On Tue, 4 Jan 2005, W. Nick Dotson wrote: > 1.
