Conventions used in the GURPS/Snowcrash Web Pages.

Underlining

Underlined text is either notes to the author, or links which have not yet been installed. Notes usually say things like "To Be Done" TBD, or something similar.

Other File Formats

Most of the pages here are standard types, like HTML (.htm), and plain text from PCs (.txt), but there are a couple of special file types:

TableMaster Files (.tbl)
These files are data files for a table handling program called TableMaster from Wintertree Software. There is a demoware version available. I own this, and my tables might be too complex or large for the dmeo version. You should own it too. :-)

Character Descriptions

Characters are usually stored in several formats. They are identified by a name, followed by various character sheets in square brackets, like this:

Joe Test [GCA][TXT][HTM][GCM]...
GCA
This is a link to a GURPS Character Assistent character file.
To use this ...
home page.
GCM
This is a link to a GURPS Character Maker character file.
To use this ... home page.
TXT
This is a link to a plain text character file.
Usually, generated by one of the programs above.
HTM
This is a link to a HTML text character file.
Usually, generated by the GCA program listed above.
DOC2
This is a link to a Word document, which has the answer to ten basic questions on it. These questions tend to round out and describe a Snowcrash character. There is a world document which you can use as a template.
HTM_CP
This is a link to a text view of Cyberpunk 2020 character information. (A very early proto-Snowcrash world was developed using these rules, but then I converted over to GURPS.) Both attributes and skills are on a 1-10 scale. There are some instructions on how to convert these on the net, but I don't know exactly where. I've already translated them, in any case.
