Hi Sam;
The search pattern is built in. Hit Tab. You will get the first link on
the page the first time you hit it. Then you move through all ONSCREEN
links until the cylcle begins again at the firat link. Shift TAB backs
up. The status bar displays the link info it graphical representation
of text format the target? of the link.
Two things to do:
One, send the status message somehow to DOS for redirection or send it
directly to the printer port.
Two, inform the user by some means that a page down is required to
access more links. This could be done right now by simply trying pgdn
and testing the links.
