LinkScan Quick Reference Card
This Quick Reference Card provides descriptions of many
LinkScan Options that are used relatively infrequently.
These commands may be entered using the Advanced Tab
on the Project Planning and/or System Options
Property Sheets.

|
When Autoencspace = 1 LinkScan will automatically encode
any unencoded space characters in a URL as "%20" thereby mirroring
the behavior of Microsoft Internet Explorer. We do not recommend
the use of this option (since it masks real errors in the HTML
documents) but it has been provided in response to user requests.
