I have no bytes and I must scream

The help authoring program I’m using has destroyed many hours’ worth of work and I have to board a plane in five hours. I’m ready to hurl my computer against the wall, but I think I’ll just go to bed instead.

  • Oops -- that's sleepiness talking there. It was the FTP program than transferred a 0-byte version of my source files. The original file should still be intact back at the office. I hope.

  • Hi, Elliot!

    (For everyone out there, Elliot's the Tucows CEO.)

    I think I have a backup at the office that I can put online on Monday. Mind you, Blogware is huge and writing the docs for it will be a job that can be measured in weeks, not days. What will probably happen is that the docs will grow on a daily basis.

  • In the meantime, I'm doing a lot of one-on-one demoing here at Bloggercon. If you're here, c'mon down and let me show you Blogware!
