My history list is getting very large--some 260 entries totalling over
12000 bytes. I don't want to del it entirely. Is there some way to
limit its size within Arachne, or must I use a text editor?
Part of the reason it is too large is that it unnecessarily tracks local
files. Every time I return to the local home page, an entry is created
for file:c:\arachne\home.htm . Every time I open the hot list, a new
entry is added for file:hotlist.htm .
The history list should not store these things. Only remote sites
should be included.
Also, there is unnecessary duplication if I pick a previously visited
site off the list. Instead of simply repositioning the pointer to the
previously visited site, Arachne creates a new entry. So the same
remote sites will be in there several times.
