That makes me think, how does one download a file in Arachne?  Is there any
elegant way that avoids attempting to process the file based on extension?
Something as simple as 'd' in Lynx when on the link to be downloaded, or setting
"Save to disk mode" from the menu in IBM Web Explorer?  Downloading in
background and then fishing in the CACHE directory among cryptic file names is
not elegant!

Do you mean SSL ... would be great ...
Michael ... you know that apache-ssl and open-ssl sourcecode is freely
available ??

One thing wrong with this is the requirement that if open source code is used in
a software project, then that software project must also be open-source.  So if
Arachne is to be non-open-source, it might be not permissible to use Open SSL.
