I played with that after reading this post. I couldn't make it work. Is there a trick you know of? I tried: ftp xterm -e ncftp "%s" but netscrape still launched! Then I messed with using urlview as the "default" handler but I still got netscape! I suppose with some hacking, urlview could be made to do this. But, I wasn't inclined to fool around with it any longer. -- ¶ One·should·only·use·the·ASCII·characterset·when·compos » ing·email·messages.
