I'm a castle freak, and not a town freak, but I thought I'd go look
anyway. When I finally got to the page of instructions, the couple I
tried were not found on the server. I was curious as to what a "self-
extracting archive" is. I know of them for Windows, but not for UNIX or
Mac (or other) browsing folks. Perhaps just zipping them up would be
more universal?

Very odd...the files are on the server and the link matches up with the
directory and filenames.  I'll have to have a chat with someone...

A self-extracting archive is (in this case) a zipfile written to an exe with
a small amount of the unzipping code included.  However, I hadn't thought
about the cross platform issue.  I'll convert them to straight zip once I
iron out the server issues.

Thanks,
Will
