Hello Lutz,

in the nl-web.c is see the possebility of a BASIC proxy authentication using the environment variable getenv("HTTP_PROXY")

setting the HTTP_PROXY im unable to get in in the right format,
can you give me a hint...

on the DOS prompt i write..

set HTTP_PROXY="myproxy:3128"

>(get-url "http://going.there")
"ERR: bad formed URL"

Norman.

It is ages ago that I have used it (it worked back then :) ) and don't have a proxy around at the moment to try. In any case you have to put "http://myproxy:3128" (see manual) in order to avoid the error message.
