True. I made sure this wasn't the case for mh-book. But the regexp could easily be made to change only localhost or no-host links, couldn't it? e.g change only stuff like: <A HREF="path/file.html"> <A HREF="http://localhost/path/file.html";> > We should ask why do we need to do this? The obvious reason is > that HTML docs may be large, and there may be disk space issues. I only went through the exercise for mh-book to save 2.5 MB. I didn't do it for gri to save 0.5MB. Peter
