Slightly sidetracked from reading some Victorian science fiction by trying to open a folder of Forgotten Futures files on my iPad. This seems to be trickier than reasonably necessary.

As noted (and linked) on https://www.forgottenfutures.co.uk/cd-rom/cdrom.htm the final Forgotten Futures release and some additional extras can now be freely downloaded from the Internet Archive. Once downloaded and unzipped, on a desktop machine everything can be accessed by clicking on the HTML index file, which pops open in the browser. Safari won't do the same on the iPad (nor will any other browser, as far as I can tell) so instead I get to see the page without images and with inactive links, which makes navigating a bit of an arse. I was hoping to easily access everything offline, but seem to have fallen at the first "easily" hurdle.
