About

It lets Netscape use Anarchie or Fetch as the default FTP client. In other words: When you click on URLs that begin with ftp://, Netscape sends the request to Anarchie or Fetch, instead of trying to do the job itself. Anarchie and Fetch tend to be a *lot* more stable than Netscape in handling such jobs. How does it work? It sends an AppleScript command to Netscape, which changes its internal configuration. This patch is squeaky clean - it's nothing like a ResEdit hack. What do I need? * AppleScript installed at the time you run the script. Note: You can remove AppleScript afterwards if you don't use it. * Netscape (hello?) * Anarchie or Fetch How much does this cost me? Hello? I didn't invent this feature in Netscape. I simply wrote a five-minute script which acts as a front end. Send me some nice email if you like. Or some bug fixes for PageMill 1.0, which really disappointed me. (If you consider "Here goes some plain text" good HTML, please disregard the last sentence.) By the way, it's really small: 9 KB Snorre Milde (smile@nordnett.no) http://www.nordnett.no/~smile/personlig.html
