Any GUI or text mode web browser :)
It's unlikely that Carl meant something like that. You know how there exists YahooPOPs for creating a non-web interface to a web-interface. Carl wants something like that. Of course, it was a joke. (Right?) -- Shriramana Sharma http://samvit.org

I do not want to read them online I have dialup. I want to download the mail and read it off line. -- ___ _ _ _ ____ _ _ _ | | | | [__ | | | |___ |_|_| ___] | \/

I don't know of any offline reader for web forums, neither Linux nor Windows. That's why I hate web forums, even as I have DSL and a flatrate. Philipp

I'm not a big fan of them either and I find I eventually leave lists that move to forums. wget might let you read one offline, but would be a lot of overhead to keep it updated. -- Collector of vintage computers http://www.ncf.ca/~ba600 Machines to trade http://www.ncf.ca/~ba600/trade.html Open Source Weekend http://www.osw.ca

At least with a news group you have readers available. but for some reason the author of cleanup chose a forum. -- ___ _ _ _ ____ _ _ _ | | | | [__ | | | |___ |_|_| ___] | \/
