I'm guessing it sends the img url to some website, maybe with yourcredentials, perhaps as cookies, then the site posts it, some user solves it, and returns the letters to you, which you type in, or cut&paste in, or maybe fills in automatically. An edbrowse function could do all of this, if we knew how it worked inside, except, there is no easy way to get the url. As of today, the alt text of an image is in brackets, unless of course that image is a clickable url whence it is in braces. I'm not thrilled about brackets since text is sometimes in brackets anyways. Rarely though is text naturally in braces or angles <>. So brackets are ok I guess for an image but if you have other suggestions I'm open. Maybe ~picture of a house~. Those are eused less frequently. Anyways let's say this is in place, then you want the edbrowse function to pull out the url from the src= attribute, but oops, this is entirely lost through browsing. It's not clickable, so I didn't particularly care about it. Visual browsers however let you right click on a picture to download it or whatever. So imagine that I carried some internal tags for the image, like I do with hyperlinks and form fields etc. If these tags were present then the A command could bring up the url for that picture, just like it does for links and so on. Then the edbrowse function could grab the url and send it to Webvism and scrape the letters off and ^ back and maybe even put them into the next input field. Feasible, if I retained the tags and src reference for images. Wouldn't be a big job, but not trivial and probably not our highest priority. Karl Dahlke
