PHP is defunct on my Debian box due to glibc package problems, so I
wrote a C# version of convert.php. Here it is for anyone who might be
having the same problem. (Note, this sucked up close to 300M of RAM when
I ran it.) Also, the hrefs in the htm files refer to filenames of all
lower-case characters, while the actual filenames are not all
lower-case. I've attached a Perl script to convert all files in the
current directory to lower case.
Johannes, thanks for taking the time to figure all of this out. :-)
