I tried to tell volunteers I am working with that someone fresh needs to proof read text copy, as constant day-to-day minutiae editing sometimes permits overlooking the most obvious.

Like, they want to use "Theatre" and not "Theater" everywhere. OK, done. Except for the page footer we worked on for >6 months. Every page.

Found looking at of course.

    Trying to optimise http://floppy.museum for (even) older browsers. Some of the issues I'm trying to solve include utf8-to-latin1 translation (the original HTML has some silly double- and triple-byte characters), and variations of JPEG that simply aren't understood.

    Turns out Netscape 2.02 is too easy, so in this picture is IBM WebExplorer v1.1h running on OS/2 Warp Connect. Using the magic "work area" feature of folders (mark a folder as a work area to have the OS manage objects within it as a kind of unit), I can open several windows at once. True multi-process browsing 😉


    OS/2 Warp Connect with four browser windows, a text mode editor editing config.sys, the parent "work area" folder and the launch pad.
