It's not so simple : You've to 1) download the .zip file at http://www.icdchess.com/forums/1/archive.shtml each day, updated each 24h but with some hours of delay 2) decompact all message in a directory and merge them with the dos or windows command : "copy /b *.txt total.txt", you'll get a big text file (will be automaticly done in version 0.2) 3) the more technical : you've to remove EOF character (1Ah) in the text file (will be automaticly done in version 0.2) > >Is it possible to write an answer, and to send it when you reconnect?
