Often it does. When someone is discussing something topical, or inviting you out somewhere, that kind of message very quickly becomes irrelevant. So does a message discussing a problem with Arachne that someone else has solved. In my experience there are very few messages that will stay rlevant indefinitely. > But that's not what I do.

OK, I'm going to try ONE MORE TIME. ;-) Press "U" on the keyboard. Link to the "Cache Index" button. There they are, right there in front of you with every original filename/loaction on the web.

I'm sorry to inform you that they are *all* 'hard coded' into core.exe It would require a complete re-write of every section of the code which calls a 'hotkey'. - -- Glenn http://arachne.cz/ http://www.delorie.com/listserv/mime/ http://www.cisnet.com/glennmcc/ http://www.cisnet.com/glennmcc/aqc/ ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 08 Jun 2003 20:30:36 -0700 From: Rick Orr <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: arachne-digest V1 #2133 > With a little more 'digging' on my other HDD partitions > via the 'find' utility. > > --- find-naf.bat --- > find /f /s "naf.cz" c:\*.cnm > find /f /s "naf.cz" d:\*.cnm > find /f /s "naf.cz" e:\*.cnm > find /f /s "naf.cz" f:\*.cnm > find /f /s "naf.cz" g:\*.cnm > find /f /s "naf.cz" h:\*.cnm > find /f /s "naf.cz" i:\*.cnm > find /f /s "naf.cz" j:\*.cnm > find /f /s "naf.cz" k:\*.cnm all zipped up & ready to be expatiated on a RAM drive. rick:-) ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 07 Jun 2003 15:21:25 +00 From: "Bastiaan Edelman, PA3FFZ" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: [A-list] Saving a webpage On Sat, 07 Jun 2003 19:29:41 -0400, Glenn McCorkle wrote: > Cache.idx can only be 'decoded' (so to speak), using the latest version > of wwwman.exe > Did you try viewing it with these key-strokes ? > "U" and then link to "Cache Index". > There you are. ;-) No I am not ;-(( INCOMPATIBLE VERSION Perhaps this has something to do with the changes we made to wwwman ?

They will at least be there in the index and I can scroll up and take a peak to see what's there without going somewhere else to look for them. If they are in another file altogether then they are someplace where they will be forgotten. Left in the index, I'll be forced to do something with them eventually.

I am Mr. Johan Zimbili, a native of Cape Town in South Africa and I work in the South African Department of Minerals & Energy. First and foremost, I apologize for using this medium to reach you for a transaction/business of this magnitude, but this is due to the prompt access this medium affords. I obtained your contact through trade and email listings over here at the department of trade, do not be alarmed over this as this form of contact is part of the regular business ethics over here. I have the mandate of two of my senior colleagues to search discreetly and diligently for a partner that could assist us concerning a business matter which will be of mutual benefit to all. We do require your assistance in the transfer of US$15,5M(Fifteen Million, Five Hundred Thousand USD) abroad. The amount US$15,5M represents an over-invoiced contract amount that was executed for my Ministry by a mining company, which has since gone into liquidation. Although the actual contract amount was paid to the company, the over-invoiced amount of US$15,5M has since been lying in the Ministry�s escrow account at the Reserve Bank of South Africa pending proper proof of claim. We are privy to this classified information by virtue of our position in the ministry. We have successfully secured payment approval for it. More so, we are handicapped in the very circumstances, as the South African Civil Service "Code of Conduct" does not allow us to operate offshore accounts hence your importance in this whole transaction. Please note your area of specialization is not a hindrance to the successful execution of this transaction. Endeavour to contact me immediately through my private mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] to confirm whether or not you are interested in this transaction, it will enable me to scout for another possible partner to carry out this transaction with, if you happen not to be. Lastly, I want to assure you that my partners and myself are in a position to make the payment of this claim possible, provided you can give us very strong assurance and guarantee that our share will be secured. This transaction has been given considerable thought, so as to safeguard the interests of those involved with the inclusion of your role. I implore you to keep this confidential. Once again remember that time is of the essence in this transaction. I await in anticipation of your fullest cooperation. Yours Faithfully, Johan Zimbili [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 09 Jun 2003 21:52:09 -0400 From: "Glenn McCorkle" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: [A-list] Saving a webpage On Sat, 07 Jun 2003 15:21:25 +00, Bastiaan Edelman, PA3FFZ wrote: > On Sat, 07 Jun 2003 19:29:41 -0400, Glenn McCorkle wrote: >> Cache.idx can only be 'decoded' (so to speak), using the latest version >> of wwwman.exe >> Did you try viewing it with these key-strokes ? >> "U" and then link to "Cache Index". >> There you are. ;-) > No I am not ;-(( INCOMPATIBLE VERSION > Perhaps this has something to do with the changes we made to wwwman ? > We changed it abt 6 month ago for the Win95 problem... > Your screen shots look promissing Glenn.
