Hi, from #lynx on calkins.freenode.net (IRC):
A user wants to retrieve something from an HTTPS website, like this: lynx -dump --accept_all_cookies -auth=foo:bar https://api.del.icio.us/v1/posts/get? He says it works without the -dump, but doesn't work with it. I told him to install the SSL cert bundle, but it didn't seem to help (no idea why), and I cannot reproduce it because I don't have that -auth= info. But the basic idea of having a command line option which over- rides all SSL warnings (self-signed cert, no common name, can't find local issuer, etc.) would make sense to me, for these who really want it. (Please do not add that to -dump automatically, for these who DO care about SSL.) bye, //mirabile -- I believe no one can invent an algorithm. One just happens to hit upon it when God enlightens him. Or only God invents algorithms, we merely copy them. If you don't believe in God, just consider God as Nature if you won't deny existence. -- Coywolf Qi Hunt _______________________________________________ Lynx-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lynx-dev
