Thanks again for making another book available, however I have a question and that is why not upload it as  a PDF file hence Mac users like myself can download  and it would be easier for everyone concerned.

I don't know if you are able to do that but if you could I'm sure I'm no the only  bee that would be grateful.......java

Header tells that the files are *.ace just change the file extension from htm to ace.

Java: Reason why he makes several disks is not that it's fun or anything, you have to if the provider has certain file-size limitations.

Title: Why not PDF
Post by: Rhadon on January 04, 2003, 10:43:00 PM
Yes, pHarmacist, that's exactly the reason why I don't use simply the PDF format instead. eSmartWeb has set a filesize limit to 650 KB / file if I'm right, so the only other options would be a more common archive format (like .zip) or splitting the PDF into 650 KB chunks. But I think that it would be more work to reassemble the PDF than to find someone who can decompress the .ace-files for you and give you the book  :) .
And there is still download option #2 (streamload). On demand I will in this case also be able to send you the PDF in uncompressed state.

I think your provider doesn't share our sentiments of what your kindly offering to everyone is worth as it is no longer available for download . Anyone else available to host...

Yes, that's true. They kicked the files but - surprisingly - not the account. I consider this as an invitation to re-upload the book  ;) . One hour after I have posted this the links should be working again.
