Files posted on BIOLAB for display with Web browsers are converted to hypertext files, which are basically ASCII files with various formating tags inserted to make the file appear as it appears, and to link the file to other files, servers, or images.
The easiest for the Sysops is if files are submitted converted into hypertext using an editor program. Basic conversion to hypertext is pretty simple, and the basics can be learned in just a few minutes.
Email me the files and we'll see about getting them converted.
As a last resort, snail mail disk copies for PC format to: BIOLAB, c/o Dr. Joseph E. Armstrong, 4120-Biological Sciences, Illinois State University, Normal, IL 61790-4120.
