I'm going to ask that you take pictures of the Pixel screen, with various parts of the Telecom DIgest page visible, so that we can get a better understanding of the situation. I'll publish the images at the T-D website.
I'll also ask that anyone with web design expertise volunteer their services to help with these goals:
- Adjust page width and height and proportions to more clearly show the online copy of the Digest when users visit it, depending on the screen resolution available to each viewer.
- Find the best compromise between the current text layout, which is simply a copy of the line lengths shown in each individual TD post, and HTML, css, or other options to automatically improve on it.
- Automate the "markup" of each day's online digest version, by using a copy of the daily digest and tools such as sed or awk.
Thanks for any help you have time to provide: I hope we'll get a better publication and make daily tasks easier by working together.
