Book downloading tips

If you have some trouble downloading, and then you overcome the trouble, please tell me and I can add it to this list. Sorry I am not a web wizard myself.

Since I compressed the book files, some people say they can
retrieve them with mosaic but not netscape.

I have now successfully downloaded your book "Imaging the Earth's Interior"
using Netscape 1.1N.

The problem I had earlier was that the Mosaic browser I was using was
decompressing the .ps.Z files and feeding them into a .ps viewer automatically.
This was filling the temporary swap space in the SPARC 2 I am running on and
hence the .ps viewer fell over before it displayed any information.

With Netscape one can press the right hand button on the mouse (if you have a
SUN workstation) on the chapter and feed the compressed file directly into a 
designated filespace.

Sorry to bother you but I thought this method might be useful for other
people who are trying to download your book and experiencing a similar 
problem to mine.
