alot of the FTP clients i have used will scan your clipboard for ftp URLs
and automatically connect to them when it sees one. is there a standalone
program that can do that? i view my email in pine on a winblows machine,
and i'd like to be able to copy the URL from the email, then using a
keystroke have it automatically run that URL in a brower. anything like
this out there? or do i have to write it myself?
