Erm, I hate to burst your bubble, but that's been implemented in fetch(1) since the beginning. I think someone once *talked* about moving the HTTP functionality into libftpio, but it never happened. Also, if we did that, we'd have to rename the library since it would then be "libftp+httpio" [and around that point, "libnetio" starts sounding real good to me :-)] Jordan
