Yes, something like that. It makes them much easier to read and archive when everything is in one place.

One thing that I'm worried with "full text versions" is that the particular one page will be too long to read through.

And generally, most people are not used to reading "a wall of text" when a whole volume is cramped into one whole page...

Maybe that's just me?

yeah.. I agree with assassin there.. It' be too hard to read a wall of text.. it's another story when you want to save it as 1 piece.
But I can say that a pdf version should be comming soon (when the chapters are edited) and I think that would be a lot better for saving. And there is this idea of an e-book, which Barbs is carrying out. If I remember correctly, it'll be out for a test just about the same time the pdf kick in.

well.. but if you can't wait for a pdf and really really need everything in 1 place, I guess I could make a 1 page full text version of volumes 1 and 3 which are completed on monday.

i wouldn't mind doing it like ZnT. people still can read their text chapter by chapter but the full text version will link to another page.
but since it's the first request of its kind. perhaps we should wait until we get more demand for it? a full text on another page does take up quite a bit of space, and we wouldn't want to hog the wiki servers with that.

just slight consideration. but once again, i'm all for it.

and the final products should come in after editing. please look forward to them. especially the ebook. it will be my pride. muahaha.

lol....I was thinking the same way barbs is, that you had to CTRL+Copy all the text, then put it on the new page...but with Code, it just puts the connections on the page, saving a couple Kilobytes...lol

lol, I'm not sure what's happening with Barbs, and I've been slow, I just need to go back and check on dialogue in Volume 1, then when I finish that, we'll get started on the pdf, and see about getting an eBook out :)

off to A-S which I haven't been to in forever O_o
