Hi Scott,

This is the second time I've seen you reference the fetch(3) man page,
so I thought maybe I should post.  I believe you run one of the BSDs.
Just FYI, I cannot find a fetch man page on my Linux systems.  I know
that several years ago when I was proxying Lynx I looked up this
information /somewhere/.  I thought it was in some man page but I cannot
find it now.  Maybe I pulled the info off the web? <scratches head>

Cheers,
Jim
