It will be a text file, and you'll be prompted to supply a file name, though lynx will offer a default suggestion. Next, depending on how you use lynx, you may need to clean it up a little. What do I mean? Well, I use lynx with numbered links turned on. So, when my screens are written to disk, all those lovely consecutive link numbers are right there, one after the next. I have two choices in a circumstance like this: 1.) Turn off link numbering temporarily before saving the file; 2.) Write a little script to get rid of the stuff enclosed in brackets. -- Janina Sajka, Director Technology Research and Development Governmental Relations Group American Foundation for the Blind (AFB) Email: janina@afb.net Phone: (202) 408-8175 Chair, Accessibility SIG Open Electronic Book Forum (OEBF) http://www.openebook.org Will electronic books surpass print books?
