ARexx script independent of any web browsers.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Instalation:
------------
Aminet.awnp NEEDS.
awnpipe see http://web.ukonline.co.uk/awnpipe/ (handler is included)
awnpipe uses ClassAct or os3.5+ Reaction to create the gui
ClassAct is available on aminet
rexxdossupport.library (aminet)

RXSocket.library (aminet)
Place Aminet.awnp somewhere in your path I will assume you used 'SYS:Tools/'
As I originaly made this for use with AmIRC i will give
instructions on how to add the ALIAS '/AA' to AmIRC's ALIAS list.
Auto Method:
------------
Use the Add2AmIRC.rexx script to update your Default.AmIRCfg file
(if AmIRC is running you must reload the Default.AmIRCfg settings)
Manual Method 1:
----------------
type in a channel window ...
/ALIAS AA = /rx sys:tools/Aminet.awnp %p
then Saving Settings as default
Manual Method 2:
----------------
Use AmIRC SetUp menu to load the SetUp gui then Select Lists/Alias
Enter then new alias as ...
AA = /rx sys:tools/Aminet.awnp %p
-------------------------------------------------------------------
