in fact i didn't thought about that right now...
for now i have all my tips in WML format in one dir, and a prog of mine is
creating all the Web hierarchy (all files under /all and symlinks from other
directories)
For now that's ok. We will see with time... But i'm surely open to all
suggestions !

i agree with you.

ok so from the next batch on, it will be like that.
i removed all copyright mentions and I now will add authors' name and email by
default.
I just hope noone will use the site to collect all emails and then spam people.
Only problem : because i haven't kept the old emails, i can't add the old
authors, that is the ones of tips already present.
if anyone recognizes one of his previous email, please warn me i will add their
name.
I really apologize to all people for not giving them proper credit.

Patrick
