Well, I modified Arachne.cfg appropriately I think:
application/octet-stream  RAR
application/octet-stream  R00
application/octet-stream  R??

Then I looked up the secret handshake for background download: cntrlENTER.

I tried it and for about 20 seconds I was deliriously happy - until it
quit the 1.4Mb download at 130Kb. It must have encountered an EOF.

That wasn't the only problem either. 
It put that 130kb in my cache dir.  NOT the download dir. 

Michael, that means I can't download a 1.5Mbfile when I only have 2.5Mb
disk space. Why doesn't the download go directly to \DOWNLOAD ???

p.s. I just got a second message from Tonberry.
I said:

Unfortunately, I am not able to do that (being that this is not my

So, sometimes it's not simple. At least I can get it now with Netscape.
