Good afternoon;
I am using Lynx 2.4-FM on an digital alpha running VMS.
I am attempting to use lynx in batch mode. I have followed an example
that I saw on the lynx web site:
**************************************
lynx -get_data < get.parms http://www.metacrawler.com/crawler > get.result
The file get.parms in this case contains all the
parameters URLencoded on one line and
the terminating triple-hyphen on a following line:
general=Lynx+Links&method=2&format=1®ion=0&rpp=20&timeout =15&hpe=10
---
*******************************************
I have tried the following:
lynx 196.3.23.35.218/ddbmail/dtmalert.pl
q
y
and also I have tried:
lynx 196.3.23.35.218/ddbmail/dtmalert.pl
---
Would you be able to point out what am doing incorrectly??
The above does not run in "batch" mode, it waits for a q to quit!
Thanks so much for any assistance
Cindi
