Excellent news!
I've just added two more, I'm afraid, but they're non-contentious and should be
very straightforward:
||(ne) ||01hh ||22, 161: ||map [so: link to map]||
We do this in the LW books whenever the text tells Lone Wolf to consult the map,
so we should do it in the FW books as well. Are there any other instances of
this in 01hh (or even in Books 2-4)? I did a search for 'map' on the current
Alpha release, and it occurs in all sections, probably as part of the xHTML
code, so that didn't really help me! >_<
I've also taken the opportunity to correct some formatting issues in FW2 - FW4, along with making sweeping changes where required (one of the advantages of having the XML of all four books available at the same time).
Let me guess: you've added 100+ added footnotes about reducing the amount of
ammunition in your Ammo Pouch? ;-) The editors really should have caught that
before publication.
If I get time, I'll try writing some alt text for the puzzles. That should at least allow the visually impaired fans to enjoy the book when its released.
I couldn't remember if there were any for the FW books. All the ones in 01hh are
simple text number puzzles, aren't they?
