     Thanks for some great new stuff!

     About downloading: Users running Netscape (and, maybe, IE) will usually
get Text-mode corrupted downloads of .shk and other non-PC extension files
from an http site. This happens whether or not users Right-click and do a
'Save link as'; and, at least with Netscape, it happens whether or not the
browser has been given info about the ".shk", etc. extension. The problem is
with the source site server.

     The files can be restored after downloading using UnCook-- see
http://www.grin.net/~cturley/gsezine/GS.WorldView/v2000/May/Articles/  and
click "Download Help"-- but, there is a way that seems to prevent download
corruption in the first place. If the names of the files on your site end with
a standard PC binary suffix, like ".bin" (e.g. Asimovshk.bin), they will
generally download with no Text mode corruption.
