This currently just describes basic Foil Processing SubSystem {wwwfoilhelp}().
We do this for one of the foilsets -- that produced for a tutorial at Supercomputing 96

Alphabetic List of Foilsets
* List of Categories of Foilsets
This is one of a collection of Foilsets which exist in several forms
The above links are for the non JavaScript implementation of Foil System
Foilsets fall into two classes -- basic
which are original sets and scripted which contain foils from many basic foilsets
Note all foilsets are constructed so that first foil is a title foil and the second foil
contains an abstract. This abstract is displayed on the indices referenced below.
You are looking at a scripted foilset which is typically a mixture of many foilsets
although it could just consist of a selection of foils from a single basic foilset.
The scripted foilsets are probably unnecessarily confusing!
The word GLOBAL means something to do with this scripted set
The word LOCAL means something to do with one of original basic foilsets
Often you can access index and presentation files from both LOCAL and
GLOBAL foilsets
ALWAYS GREY buttons refer to basic foilsets
ALWAYS COLORED buttons other than GREY refer to scripted foilset -- each scripted
set chooses for no good reason a color for its buttons!
Some of the available files are:
In the form of (IMAGE) Images
-- typically of Persuasion foils but sometimes Screendumps
or Powerpoint presentations. Clickable URL here refers to first such foil.
A pure text(HTML) form
-- one file per foil --
which is typically extracted from outline file from Persuasion and
sometimes misses information available in Image version(above).
If critical information is missing, this is indicated in HTML.
Clickable URL here refers to first such foil.
Some of the material has audio files attached to it where the buttons
Secs

refer to client raplayer and server respectively.
The client case requires file to be downloaded before playing which has startup issues but once
started is safe!
The server case is set up for 28.8kbaud modem network performance.
