Sorry, I've been a little busy with everything, so that's why it took a while to reply this message.

Firstly, by downloading the .html files using HTTP it causes PHP tags to disappear and secondly, you're changed the formating of the text and thus the 'diff' utility is useless, thus I can't copy the proof-readed files over the old files because of the PHP problems and I can't spot the differences easily using the 'diff' utility because of a slight change in the formatting. Even with the latter problem corrected, it is very frustrating to type all the changes to the .html files by hand. A better way might be to just send me in a mail the lines needing updated or then give you an account to the server so you could fix them directly, but that is not nearly necessary as there is not _that_ many .html files in there and they're already quite 'proof-readed', so they're not _that_ horrible. In future, however, it would be a very nice thing to have a proof-reader for who we could send files needing proof-reading and then receive them back with the corrections made to the .html or .txt directly. If you're still wanting to do proof-reading, then it could be very nice if you could proof-read https://majik3d-legacy.org/~namhas/article/roleplay.html, an article which should go to Imaginary Realities magazine someday. -- Tommi Leino / Majik 3D project namhas@majik3D.org http://www.majik3D.org
