It’s a shame I don’t use a Mac or anything else related to Apple. (All Linux, all the way.) It seems like these would have actually been fun to read. Will you put them in another format in the future?

Thank you for the kind words, Grace.
I would like to work some of these into a different format at some point, but right now they use a number of widgets for interactivity that I can’t (read: don’t know how to) reproduce in another format.
Just stop in to an apple store sometime and download the free sample versions onto their machines to check them out. Then leave them there for others to see! 🙂
Thanks,
Jack

Ever since I left the uni campus, I don’t have access to Macs on Demand. All of my friends are huge Slackware geeks, and I’m not that great with SuSE yet to get iTunes working on it.
If you are serious about wanting to publish in different formats, give Calibre a run. It’s free software that can run on any OS, and it can take your documents and put them into .epub format. Here’s how: http://osxdaily.com/2010/08/12/convert-to-epub/
While I’ve played around with it, I’ve not figured out a good way to distribute for profit, but once you have it in .epub, you can download it.
There are others out there that do other formats, but I’ve not played with them much. I need to for my clients. I’ll let you know if I come across a good way.

Thanks Grace – I’ll look into Calibre soon.
