Thanks for the explaination. Now, since I'm behind a proxy that requires basic authentication, how can I handle the two different programs? fetch accepts something like http_proxy = "http://user:pass@proxy:port" while phttpget seems to me requires: http_proxy = "http://proxy:port" http_proxy_auth = "basic:::user:pass" Thanks, Luca
