I just sub'd to a mailing list that is produced only in HTML. I'd like to save it to /tmp, strip it, and have it ready for lynx or links. If anyone onlist has already done this, it would save me from reinventing *this* wheel. thanks in advance, gary -- Gary Kline kline@thought.org www.thought.org Public service Unix
