As a hypothesis, I propose that many people prefer to print PS/PDF files rather than reading them from the screen because PS/PDF tend to be unpleasant to read from the screen. It doesn't, for example, reformat itself to the display/window/font size combination. HTML does that better. Anyway, I'm not opposed to providing a PDF version in a package, but I really, really hope we're not going to switch away from HTML as the primary format. -- Code is cheap to write. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
