Very, very strange.Here I am downloading from my isp (www.panix.com) via my "shell account" there (unix -- well, actually net-bsd) down to *my* computer (a Sun), and from my computer I'm just going down through the index.html, downloading file after file. (Yeah, I could have tarred.bz2 them all up and "automated" it, so to speak, but for these few I'm just doing it "by hand", doing a "d" on each one.) Anyway, on .muttrc, I get this message telling me that I can't download a file whose name begins with a dot. I have never before seen such a message.
it's configurable (and has been in lynx for a while - a quick check shows it mentioned in 2.8.3dev.1 in 1999). In lynx.cfg that's "no_dot_files",
which also corresponds to a restriction (command-line option). Normally the default for this is compiled in via userdefs.h as "TRUE".
(No, I haven't tryed to duplicate what happened -- the fact that it happened once -- heck, the fact that such an error-msg even exists is worry enough!) Any idea what's going on? Thanks!
