I assume the format will not be changing? If so, I'll wait until it's
settled down.

I will also look at the /pages/ directory. I don't remember why I
didn't think that was right. IIRC, it was because it contained lots
of:

>foo
<bar

type of stuff, which made me assume it was "changes". But I'll look at
it again. Is there a webpage which describes the file formats and
stuff, or do I need to go through the code?

Thanks a lot, Jimbo. I appreciate the help.
