Hey folks.
Earlier this week there was a discussion on Slashdot about Microsoft
sending out their file format specs, according to the antitrust
settlement, in a proprietary format. The format, it seems, is actually
not closed.
The idea of the format is to wrap a whole bunch of web stuff up in a
single file -- linked images etc all in one. This is how Windows HTML
Help works to create .chm files as well.
I just saw this extension for Firefox appear which seems to do the same
thing. Seems to work a treat! No idea if it can be opened in IE
though.
