If the article doesn't exist on altavista I get the following: Could not open article file. in some kind of temporay buffer, and: Contacting ww2.altavista.digital.com:80 Retrieval complete. Mark set Args out of range: 1, 143 In the mini buffer, maybe some better way to handle the case? And.. well wouldn't it be better to get the 'binary'representation of the article, rather than the one with the html codes in it? (the 'b' link on the altavista search page) BTW is it possible to get more than the 10 first matches?? And am I only dreaming when it would be nice to grab the article from the local newsserver (the 'l' button on the altavista search page?) /Andy -- Hi I am an alien .sig, and at the moment I am having sex to your mind, by looking at your smile I can see that you like it.
