Please can you/the_gang ensure that the munged syntax is human-readable and human-hackable if possible. I suspect that many of these queries/addresses will be authored by humans and no-one seems to think there are good graphical tools (yet). I would prefer that we didn't have to type %20 throughout the string because it's both unreadable and error-prone (at least for me:-) P. -- Peter Murray-Rust, domestic net connection Virtual School of Molecular Sciences http://www.vsms.nottingham.ac.uk/Received on Wednesday, 26 March 1997 18:04:08 EST
