[Helpers] FST links - structurally

Hello Mystress - would you please provide me a little discussion on
your http://www.fire-serpent.com/fstlinks.html page? I see that not all
indiv. topic links are duplicated here (or vice versa). What do you
desire? I like the idea of 100% syncronicity....

I also notice the indiv. topic pages are sometimes numbered, sometimes
not. For example: we have www.fire-serpent.com/tantra/aspects.html (not
numbered), with 8rgender.html (numbered yet out of order). Is this ever
anything you think might be helpful to go in and clean up (without
possibly causing cascading broken links elsewhere...)?

If I were handling this code, I would assemble the master page (all
topics listed in order) from many mini-pages (links for an indiv.
topic). This way, when I'd want to update say, Lesson 12's mini-page -
then the 2 pulls (the FST topic page & the master page) would update
themselves simultaneously.... 

Right now I see you have single (and huge) code files (.TXT) for your
topic pages. What I'm suggesting would be a somewhat radical
ground-level change in your organizational structure.... with the
understanding that I'm all about automating actually - I'm looking
further ahead too.

I understand this is your Round 2 (at least) with volunteers. With all
these Helpers emails between you & Sachiko though? Whew - it's a lot of
nitty-gritty detail. What I can see is setting up a way for stuff to
run itself - like there can a) structural changes that will reduce a
lot of the hand-coding hunt & peck, b) FTP areas already established
with how-to instructional files for any new rounds of volunteers, and
c)... well... I'm good at what I'm suggesting here. I'm a good
earth-shaker for a better foundation - what exists after my shaking is
good indeed. *grin*
