  Re: Linking between FAQ items (Was: [LDraw FAQ] Who wrote LDraw?)
 
(...) "this" refers to using URLS to point to other FAQ items. "its" as in "its capability" refers to the essential capability to use URLs to point to other FAQ items. (...) I'm not sure about never ever (1) but it'd still be nice to point to other (...) (26 years ago, 14-May-99, to lugnet.faq)
 
  Re: Linking between FAQ items (Was: [LDraw FAQ] Who wrote LDraw?)
 
(...) No, because it's unlikely that the website will contain any files with the .html extension -- they'll definitely all be generated on-the-fly (dunno what the URLs will look like yet) with transparent caching of generated content. (...) Yup, (...) (26 years ago, 14-May-99, to lugnet.faq)
 
  Re: Linking between FAQ items (Was: [LDraw FAQ] Who wrote LDraw?)
 
(...) Do we really need duplicates in the output, though? Physical location in the subdirectory structure can be worked around. Also, at this point, I'm inclined to scrap the Location header (1), since I can't see any real use for it. Cheers, - (...) (26 years ago, 14-May-99, to lugnet.faq)
 
  Re: Linking between FAQ items (Was: [LDraw FAQ] Who wrote LDraw?)
 
(...) Jeremy, what are the antecedent of the words "this" and "its" in your sentence above? The general idea of referring via "see ..." to another question, or the "#xxx" anchors? I hope there never ever* is a need for any "#xxx" anchors in this (...) (26 years ago, 14-May-99, to lugnet.faq)
 
  Re: Linking between FAQ items (Was: [LDraw FAQ] Who wrote LDraw?)
 
(...) Okay, I got it. From my end, I can guarantee that all FAQ items (1) have unique file names. This is the key thing, to be able to find a specific file by its name, in any subdirectory. So, to make a HREF to "#whatsitz" in file "flarn.en.html" (...) (26 years ago, 14-May-99, to lugnet.faq)

  Re: Linking between FAQ items (Was: [LDraw FAQ] Who wrote LDraw?)
 
Jeremy: (...) If an answer is located in two places, we will also need two copies in the _processed_ version of the FAQ, not in the raw data (of cause). (...) Yes. Do you have a better solution (preferably not one that involves too much work). Play (...) (26 years ago, 14-May-99, to lugnet.faq)
 
  Re: [LDraw FAQ] What are the MIME types for LDraw and MPD files?
 
Jeremy: (...) /lugnet/cad/ldraw/ for the introductory and general questions (maybe also /lugnet/cad/). /lugnet/cad/ldraw/using/ for questions on the use of LDraw (maybe also /lugnet/cad/). /lugnet/cad/ for questions related to other tools. (...) (26 years ago, 14-May-99, to lugnet.faq)
 
  Re: Linking between FAQ items (Was: [LDraw FAQ] Who wrote LDraw?)
 
(...) Ah...no. We need to be able to solve this without using duplicate files. Plus, this action would break if the FAQ were slurped into one big file. Urg. Cheers, - jsproat (26 years ago, 14-May-99, to lugnet.faq)
 
  Re: Linking between FAQ items (Was: [LDraw FAQ] Who wrote LDraw?)
 
Jeremy: (...) Good you caught it. There is more of the same. Can we assume that when we have a raw FAQ entry file named "some_entry.en.faq" with the location header Location: /category/group/,/other/group2/ the FAQ web site will contain files named (...) (26 years ago, 14-May-99, to lugnet.faq)
