That's great to get pan opening, but you/he may not be sure what to hand pan once it's opening. Once you get pan opening properly from firefox, to get the additional commandline options you may need to feed pan to get it to download the nzb, try "pan --help" in a terminal window. As with most apps, --help as a commandline option causes pan to spit out some useful information about various options it takes, including in this case what we are interested in, the nzb command line options. -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
