Hi Glenn;
Thanks for all the detail. I really love the detail. <G>
About Dragonlinux 0.80, I know I'm not interested either !
It includes Xwindows and is 46Mb ZIPPED..
That's why I've been chasing v0.76. No "X" and 1/5 the weight !
Karlis says (has been saying for 2 months <g>) that there is ANOTHER
version coming almost yesterday that's nice and small (no "X") - but I
might as well get started now before LinuxArachne gets released.

Yeah, exactly that. I don't see why using that method and bypassing the
save to cache shouldn't be easy to do. Granted, it has low priority. <g>

That makes a lot of sense. I do that with Netscape all the time.
I guess you don't actually have to change download directory specified in
Arachne.cfg, just manage to get the "Saveas" screen and direct it there.
Thanks for the great suggestion.
