You should be able to upload them to ftp://ftp.htdig.org/incoming/
and then e-mail Geoff or me to move them over to files/binaries/.
As for the 01-parse_doc.pl script, if I recall it's just the same
parse_doc.pl script with some paths changed, a hook added for dealing
with "nul" vs. /dev/null, suppression of really big words, and some
changed comments. At the risk of repeating myself, I feel I must again
strongly recommend conv_doc.pl over parse_doc.pl, because it just does
a better job. I'll probably add the /dev/null patch to conv_doc.pl, but
if you want to add that and fix the paths, and include the modified
conv_doc.pl script in your zip file, it would be a big help. In any
case, thanks for your efforts.
