I'm impressed. I accessed it in Lynx and it was *perfect* -- not a single inline <IMG> without an appropriate Alt= attribute. As a quick test I did a search on something that I new I'd posted to the comp.lang.awk newsgroups within that last couple of days. It found them almost instantly (except that it was apparently arranged chronologically -- so I had to hunt through several pages of [Next Set of Matches] links to find my stuff. (Sorry no cypher relevance I can add to this -- but put that URL in your bookmarks folks).
