Subj: REPLY TO MSG #1414 (XMD/ARCHIVE)

I appreciate the feedback on the newsletter archive and your efforts in
downloading to cassette.  It's been sooooo long since I played with cassette
that I just do not remember what worked and what didn't.  I will have to break
out my old CCR-82 and play with it, and with the various programs from our
library to discover what works, then annotate my findings in a (H)elpfile.  It
all takes time.
 
The newsletter archive layout is a new format that I just placed online
yesterday.  I've tried several layouts over the years.  Nothing is perfect.
What I wanted this time was something relatively compact yet small enough for
stock Model 100/102/200 users to acquire.  I decided to lay the archives out by
quarter.  Thus, there are 4 quarters in the year, or about 3 newsletters per
quarter.  And yes, there were times when I didn't author a newsletter for a
month or two.  It might be a good idea for me to go back and annotate that fact
within the newsletters, i.e., "No newsletter for April" or words to that
effect.
 
I appreciate your feedback.  Perhaps one day I'll get it right.  Until then,
I'll just keep on trying things and listening to feedback for clues as to how
something works.  Thanks... -Rick-
