Thanks, Neil.
It will be available as a package as soon as I find a way to accomplish
the act of making a screenshot of the contents of a particular frame by
any method other than trial and error. <G>

Doesn't sound right to me. You must have inadvertantly deviated from the
script. I just tried it here and it still works. ;-)
Add a line like this to MIME.cfg. (I LOVE monospaced text !)
file/myaction.dgi |arachne $s
Then create a test page "TEST.htm" (or modify something) to contain these
two lines: (nothing else required for Arachne)
<FORM ACTION=myaction.dgi>
<INPUT TYPE=TEXT VALUE="" SIZE=30 ACTIVE> (I just now added the 'active')
Then after you have saved TEST.htm, hit F3 and enter file://test.htm
You will get a blank screen with an empty form and the cursor will be in it.
Try entering the complete filename of any page or image you can remember.
Like PPP_INIT.htm or strobo.gif or keywords.txt.
Then hit ENTER.
