I don't know if anyone is interested... but for those who don't really
want to setup a bunch of plugins for netscape on Linux but do occasionally
want to "view" embedded plugin source with their external (~/.mailcap)
viewers, I've written a little perl script to pull out the <embed ...>
tags from a url and launch external viewers.

        http://www.jfku.edu/~runge/Programs/UsefulScripts/plugin

For example running:

        % plugin http://www.hamsterdance.com

verifies for the user that URL is a complete waste of time. (as if the
100 animated gifs didn't indicate it!)

Like most of my stuff, it's not terribly polished but usually gets the 
job done :-) If anyone knows of similar programs or how to coerce netscape
into doing this I'd be interested in hearing of it.

Best,

Karl Runge
