simple... as i initially stated... i'm curious as to whether anyone has managed to "drive" a browser from the command line. basically, i'm interested in possibly parsing some sites, and i'd like to be able to do something like: /tmp/brower "www.foo.com" > outputfile i'd like to be able to specify the site/page for the browser, with the browser then returnning the results for the given page... i've already been using libwww/mechanize.. it's my understanding that wget/curl aren't significantly better. so i'm searching for a browser app that can be used at the command level... i don't need the display/rendering function, just the ability to accurately return the page text. -bruce -----Original Message----- From: redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Jason Dixon Sent: Tuesday, June 08, 2004 4:16 PM To: <bedouglas@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Red Hat Mailing List Subject: Re: running a browser from the command line...

Perhaps, then, you should explain what your _real_ requirements are. -- Jason Dixon, RHCE DixonGroup Consulting http://www.dixongroup.net -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
