Hmm... I know, some of them have been posted here and there in the past

I just wanted to bring as many as possible of them together (updated - LCI inclusive in many system docs) in a single post.
You are correct, I don't know how to stick the hyperlinks into the basic/main document.

I understand what you're trying to do and I think it's great. The basic problem is that you won't be able to contain all these documents in a single post since the board software will limit the amount of attachements per post.

Because of this, I think you would be better off using an album in the gallery so that all of the documents can be seen in one place (or two places, your album and my album...). Once they're in the gallery, you can always post links to them in replies so when someone needs help, they can be pointed in the right direction.

As far as LCI specific documents, some of them haven't changed and some have. To keep things as accurate as possible, I also try to post updates the ones that have changed when I get a chance (but updating them and including all the hyperlinks takes way more time so I'm not always as fast as I'd like to be.) Again, to make things easy, when I post an update to a document, I just replace the one in the gallery and sometimes, if I feel it's a document that many people would be interested in, I'll post a message on the main board annoncing the update (since the gallery won't show the updated document as "new"...)

Speaking of hyperlinks, I've noticed that some of the newer documents have "dead" links (for example, the place that says "system overview" does not have a box around the words -- instead it looks like the following: [system overview].

When it looks like that, you can't click on the words to go to the overview. I'm not sure if that means there's a problem with my TIS installation of if the document is so new that they haven't had a chance to include the new links, etc. Have you run into this problem? Anyone else with a TIS disc have this issue?
