contrary to some vicious and untrue rumors
you might have been exposed to,               :+)
i have indeed programmed a good number of
electronic-book authoring tools, and i'll be
telling you all about them in coming days,
including how to use them for f.b. purposes.

next up is "book-macway" -- b-mw for short --
and i _will_ continue making modifications to it
to enable it to handle archives from this listserve.

you'll be able to simply drag-n-drop larry's archive files
on b-mw, and it will automagically process the messages,
transparently formatting each one for individual handling,
and then acting as the delivery vehicle for browsing them.
it's hard to imagine how e-book authoring could get any easier.

i'll let you know when it's soup yet...        :+)

p.s.  bill or ross, would it be kosher for me to include the
function junction routines in a copy of b-mw for people here?

p.p.s.  i've also got a 303-line improved version of "rat",
the text-based authoring-tool i posted over the weekend,
so backchannel me if you'd like to see that little baby...
