- G'day.
-
- I saw a message about buffering text with Dialogue to print later by
- horvath@acs.ucalgary.ca, and replied via Email, but thought it worthy
- of posting here too.
-
- When your using Internet utilities such as reading the newsgroups or
- browsing WWW, the easiest methods I've found of keeping info I want to
- later print is to mail the stuff to myself at my Email address. Once I
- have it in my mail box, I export it to a text file, appending to it as
- I go. (I use Pine as my mail reader online and it has this option). I
- then download the file and use Zed to print it or resave it in non-Unix
- format. Hope this is of some help.
-
- You can also read the file with Browser, as you can change how the
- CR/LF is dealt with, but I can't recommend it for printing the info,
- because it prints it as is from the disk.
