FreeBSD Handbook in Compiled HTML format (chm) I think the misunderstanding is what format these files are. All of these except for PDF are Microsoft proprietary formats. Web Help is the internal help format for XP, and Compiled HTML is the format for Win2K era Help. An indexed PDF is nice since the autogenerated one doesn't have the links. I'm not sure how useful Windows format files are for FreeBSD users, when you can't view them in the FreeBSD environment, but if someone finds it useful.. :) How frequently are you planning on updating these? The Handbook that is on the website at http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/ changes daily. If your copies aren't up to date, then they aren't very useful to the user populace. -- Doug White | FreeBSD: The Power to Serve dwhite@gumbysoft.com | www.FreeBSD.org
