The other day I noticed that DP has recently uploaded a reworking of
Frankenstein (#41445), the 12th most downloaded "work" on PG. I am
assuming that it wasn't cross-checked against #84, so I've started the
process of doing this.

I've done the quick and easy bit and now have the text rewrapped to
the images. I would like to get these files uploaded to #41445's
fileset - they are sitting at:

https://github.com/JonHurst/frankenstein

If you want to just get a zip file rather than use git use:

https://github.com/JonHurst/frankenstein/archive/master.zip

I'm not sure what the protocol for doing this is, beyond it being
"supported and encouraged" to have the scans present in the fileset of
a given "expression" -- Greg, please let me know what you would like
to do.

I've also taken the opportunity to knock up a very simplistic viewer
interface to help errata reporters etc. This is at:

http://www.hursts.eclipse.co.uk/viewer.html

Make sure it has finished loading before you try to view a page image
or you will end up opening the image in a new tab rather than next to
the text. As I said, it's very simplistic. If there is some way that
PG could host a more advanced version of this viewer it would
certainly make checking errata a lot easier.

I am intending to do the cross-checking with #84 at some point over
the next month or so, so I'll send any errata once I'm done. I would
also quite like to do a LaTeX version in order to produce A5 and
Kindle sized PDFs with decent typography -- would PG be willing to
host these?

Regards

Jon
