This matter was aired on the list at the time, some 12 to 18 months ago, I don't remember any request to stop transcribing, and I suggest the number of files concerned indicates there was none. Alan is very welcome to rectify my files if he can, in fact I think if he has the means available he should alter the lot. To pull out 39 files from Freebmd, persuade each one individually into the modern version of Winbmd, flick the column switch and hope the column goes away and reload, on Dialup, well, I have more urgent things to do. While we are on the subject of 'errors', if one legitimately finishes a file with an unknown number of lines missing at the end with +BREAK it will appear in glorious technicolour on the Management page. Similarly if one follows TWYS and accurately reproduces the clerk's entry at the foot of the page, if that is not what someone thought he should write, it again appears in technicolour. On a lighter note, a transcriber sent me a screen shot and the file, showing what happened when she tried to upload. She wrote I haven't an idea what this is all about. I hadn't either. Close examination of the file showed a space in the Page column. It brought to mind a well known author writing in a computer magazine, he wrote, If you are as bemused as I am over some of the error messages in Windows, the smart thing to do is to select a few of the words and pop them in the Google search engine and see what you get! I rest my case.
