WAIT!! It just occurred to me that there is a problem because you probably
by now have dropped the cur_linked_links and cur_unlinked_links columns,
right? The script updLinks.php assumes they are still there and gets its
information for the new tables from them. So just running it again won't
work.
No panic, the linking information is still there except we now need a
different script because we need to get it out of the cur_text field. This
is a bit of a problem because I really have to prepare some lessons for
tomorrow. Any of the other programmers feel able to do this?
