Documentation, FAQ?

rsperberg · 02-01-2006, 01:45 PM

I've only used Sunrise to make pdbe-books from book files.

I'm only now looking into using it to grab web pages for reading offline.

I see that there used to be an FAQ online along with some other information, at the now-defunct typepad site Laurens had.

Does it appear somewhere else? How could I get my hands on whatever documentation exists?

Actually, the difficulty I'm having right now is pretty low-level. I'd like to collect a lot of documents on my local drive, or several from different websites, and put them into a single pdb file. Right now, each document I have makes a separate pdb.

What am I overlooking?

Thanks,

Roger Sperberg

There's no real documentation, just some info scattered across the old blog and some random files in the distribution. Sunrise XP will (finally) have real help documentation.

Anyway, it's not possible to put multiple documents in a single PDB.

Well that was my big question. If I get stuck doing things with RSS feeds, I'll ask here.

Btw, I don't know if you get thanked sufficiently for your work in making this program -- in its earlier incarnation and in the new version -- available to us to use. I for one am extremely grateful. We non-programmers look up at you with admiration and gratitude for this. To us, it's simple: You're a hero, Laurens!
