Some simple scripts for replacing all instances of
"htm" with "html", a common need with Windows created web pages.
#!/bin/sh
for i in "*.htm"
do
j=`basename $i .htm`
cat $i | sed s/\.htm/\.html/g > $j.html
done
ksh even easier.
for i in *.htm; do; mv $i ${i%.htm}.html; done

[BODY BGCOLOR="#FFFFFF"]

I just discovered an odd trick I hadn't seen: try entering
view-source:http://www.blahblahblah

Wow -- you can even put that in an href!

You can make it an anchor. For example,
View the source to this
page

Now what could be doing _this_?
I load the page
http://www.iclnet.org/clm/real/ri9502/sommers.html
The red "stop" light flashes on and then off about once a second; so does
the status bar, too fast to see what it is trying to accomplish.
WTF?
