I can confirm the first problem using Firefox 3.0.14 on Gentoo Linux, 64-bit. As far as the second, I'm not sure if I'm experiencing what Wu is. I cannot reproduce the "unable to gzip" problem, at least. Also, to the best of my knowledge, I have never before accessed manual.txt, so I do not believe caching is an issue. A couple shift+refreshes did not lead me to the entire manual file. When viewed in firefox or downloaded with wget, manual.txt is only the table of contents + first chapter. When viewed in firefox, manual.txt.gz displays as a text/plain file, but it's apparently got some kind of unicode going on, because valid characters alternate with little squares containing numbers (utf16 character codes or something similar, I presume). It appears as though Firefox is automatically gunzip'ing the file for me. When I download manual.txt.gz with wget and then unzip it and vim the result, I again see alternating valid character and <##> (I have "set display+=uhex in my .vimrc). This may very well be a configuration problem on my side, that I don't see non-utf8 files correctly. -- Noah Sheppard Assistant Computer Resource Manager Taylor University CSE Department nshep...@cse.taylor.edu
