	In Netscape, I press the right-button of the mouse on the link to the pgn file,
and then I follow the option to "save this link as..."
	If the games appear in the body of a page, I use the copy/paste utilities of my
machine to put them in a file which I always name with a .pgn extension. I use
the vi editor.
	pgn files are text files, it is not surprising that they are recognized as text
files.
