Hi, I found something in my documents called JMF merge, but haven't a clue
about what to do with the thing. It's just sitting there taking up space.
The thing is, I (non-technoperson that I am) know absolutely nothing about
merging documents. I wouldn't know what to do with a merging program if it
bit me. So you could probably send me an HTML merge program, but that
doesn't mean I'd know what to do with it. Again, any help is definitely
appreciated, so if you send me something, please provide very simple
instructions concerning what to do and why I'm doing these steps. You see,
I'm not intuitive when it comes to computer stuff and need everything
spelled out. Thanks, Kim Friedman.

Use an html merger to merge all the disparate html files and then save as
text in IE or your favourite browser. I can provide you with a merger, if
you can't find a good one on google.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Converting Html books
Hi, I have a question and I'm thinking you computer nerds might be able to
help me. Here's the story: I downloaded a collection of stories by Mercedes
Lackey called Fiddler Fair from webscriptions.net which is affiliated with
Baen books. When I downloaded the book, I chose to do it in HTML format
because I think my BrailleNote mPower can deal with stuff in that format or
at least I think it can. The problem is that when I enter the book, there
are a lot of files, each story being in its own file and there's a
connection to Internet Explorer in order for me to read them. What I'm
wondering is if there's a way to convert the book to plain text so I can
select those parts the BrailleNote will recognize, and do either a
copy-and-paste or a cut-and-paste job on it. I have a friend who tells me
not to bother, but just read the thing on the computer. Any advice? Keep in
mind that I know nothing about converting texts into various formats, so I
don't know how to go about it. Also, is there some computer program I need
to get that will allow me to convert files and I hope this program will be
easy to use and very accessible. Perplexed, Kim Friedman.
