when I "view" an http email in firefox, if I "hit-a-key" to return to mutt too soon, the page fails to load in firefox as the temp file has been removed. I understand that you don't see "chrome" *return* but you know that there is a delay until the entire page/data is handed off to chrome where the exchange can be interrupted. Supposedly "copiousoutput" delays the "return from browser/other-app" until the data has been exchanged/delivered...... -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA HOG # US1244711 http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net
