And what about the need to type a user name and password?
Also what if you read few papers?
Can more than one paper be downo inonaded in go.
Sure we are to get email b ack,
But note, they have not given an assurance it will be
Text, rather than html

When you get to the paper you want - add THAT to your Favourites.
Unless you have an up to date browser, which allows you to store passwords,
you will still have to go through that stage, but at least you should then
be at your paper without having to find it.

At the moment to get a news paper you have to:
1. go o favourites
2. Click address.
3. type in user name and password.
4. now find the paper.
Now if we were receiving the paper by email it's A bit quicker.
But if good old dos was here
Consider what might have been possible with use of bat file.

I'm not sure I follow - so, you have a bookmark with the link of your
favourite paper, and your username and password saved plus autologin if you
want.
You drag bookmark to desktop - perhaps it's called "fish monthly" - when
your computer is booted up and logged in, you type "fi" and hit enter and
your browser is started, your site is logged in and your publication loaded
(assuming you don't have more than one shortcut starting "fi" in which case
just type more letters!)
I'm not entirely sure how DOS would speed this process up.
But if you REALLY want to use it, both the DOS prompt and Windows Powershell
are still available in all editions of windows.
