Ross, You have to be more careful with what you ask for!! I'm sure most of us know Telix & cap files; but it you remember back a bit carefully, you'll recall that the cap file had a limit ... it couldn't get bigger than a certain level. Downloading the code for a single average webpage these days would exceed the max limit of the old Telix capture file. And capturing web pages wouldn't do you any good ... because you would have to go in and edit the capture file into individual pages, one at a time, save it one, and then reload the browser to view the page. And since graphics wouldn't have been downloaded along with the page code, nor would CSS have made the trip, those "captured" web pages would be next to worthless off-line. Well maybe just on searches?? Not likely, ol' boy. Those aren't "text" pages, they are html like any other website. Hit F6 and look at the actual page that would be "captured" the next time you do a search. What you want is -- without you realizing it -- a nightmare that would put MicroZoft Dozerwarez to shame! Cross your fingers really tight and hope that you can pull your wish back ... l.d. ==== On Wed, 25 Jul 2001 19:30:50 +0000, Ross Virgin wrote: > Let me try again to outline what I mean by "spooling" or > "capturing". > Back in the "dark old days" (the great old days) of Telix, > Procomm, Bitcom, PCtalk..... when you called a BBS, you > could open a Capture file (named VERGE.001).
