Re: FTPGET Icons

} The html source code created by ftpget has lines like:
}
} <IMG SRC="internal-gopher-menu" ALT="[DIR] "> incoming
} <IMG SRC="internal-gopher-menu" ALT="[DIR] "> outgoing

Normally, with Netscape at least, these icons are internal to your
browser. The problem is some browsers don't have the internal icons.

I fix this by having this in the config file:-
   ftpget_options -p http://some.machine.tld/icons/ -s .gif

so the lines above get converted to
 <IMG SRC="http://some.machine.tld/icons/gopher-menu.gif" ALT="[DIR] ">
        <A HREF="incoming/">incoming</A>
 <IMG SRC="http://some.machine.tld/icons/gopher-menu.gif" ALT="[DIR] ">
        <A HREF="outgoing/">outgoing</A>

You then need to make these icons available at that URL - I use the apache
icons (I think I needed to rename/link a couple).
