thanks for your help. I tried Chrome and it works!

Try using one that is less buggy :) In plain text, the surrounding of a URL by <> is how the URL is distinguished from other text: The characters "<" and ">" are unsafe because they are used as the delimiters around URLs in free text "Uniform Resource Locators (RUL)" Your browser is just scraping along through the text and is heuristically looking for anything that starts with a URL prefix like https:// and considering everything up to the next whitespace character to be a URL. However, there's no point in downloading Iterated Dynamics 1.1 for ubuntu anyway because unix support won't be restored until 2.0. -- Richard -- "The Direct3D Graphics Pipeline" free book The Terminals Wiki The Computer Graphics Museum Legalize Adulthood!

Odd. I used Firefox and had...no problems whatever with the download links. Looking forward to the Linux version. On February 4, 2025 12:03:00 PM HST, dastew dastew <dastew@sympatico.ca> wrote:

We're getting there :) I did some experimental hacking in the direction of wxWidgets and I'm keeping that branch up to date with other changes. -- Richard -- "The Direct3D Graphics Pipeline" free book <http://tinyurl.com/d3d-pipeline> The Terminals Wiki <http://terminals-wiki.org> The Computer Graphics Museum <http://ComputerGraphicsMuseum.org> Legalize Adulthood!

I had a thought... it might run just fine under Wine on linux. I'm not doing anything particularly adventurous in the Windows code, not even using OpenGL yet. If you're willing to give it a try, download the ZIP package (not the source ZIP) and see how it goes. You'll still need to run the Visual C++ runtime installer in Wine first. -- Richard -- "The Direct3D Graphics Pipeline" free book <http://tinyurl.com/d3d-pipeline> The Terminals Wiki <http://terminals-wiki.org> The Computer Graphics Museum <http://ComputerGraphicsMuseum.org> Legalize Adulthood!
