From what I can tell, everything on the http://www.jsoftware.com
server is on the https://www.jsoftware.com server.

The advantage of http was

(*) a small amount of efficiency (which mattered on older machines), and
(*) the ability to interact with the protocol "manually" (which still
has educational value, but isn't necessary for people using browsers).

Anyways, .. I have not checked everything. Also, not too long ago
(roughly a month ago), there were .htm files on the
https://www.jsoftware.com server which were not on the
http://www.jsoftware.com server. (Which leads me to think that these
represent two different copies of a file system rather than being two
interfaces on a system serving the same content.) So there might be
some minor issues after this change.

That said, changing all jsoftware.com references from http: to https:
sounds like the right approach.

Thanks,
