In this term project outline you will:
To prepare your outline, ftp to ftp.crwr.utexas.edu and pick up the source file used to make this outline, which is outline.htm in directory /pub/hydclass. Use the ASCII rather than Binary option when using ftp. Bring the file up in a text editor or in a word processing program, delete the material that you don't need and subsitute your own. Use the Enter key to end each line, rather than letting the text editor wrap the text for you on the screen. Otherwise, the next time you view the file it could consist of one line of text extending a very far distance to the right of your screen! Web browsers automatically fit the text to the width of the screen display so it makes no difference how wide or narrow is the length of lines you use in your text file. Save the file as a text file, not in a special word processing file format, and use a name that is unique to you for the file name, like maidment.htm. Strictly speaking web files usually have the extension html (hypertext markup language) but I use .htm instead because PC machines truncate the .html extension to .htm automatically.
Once you have completed your outline, send it to me via email as an attachment, or ftp it to ftp.crwr.utexas.edu, deposit it in the directory /pub/incoming/outlines and send me an email to tell me it is there. If you've established an email address on campus, please put it in your proposal so I can respond to your proposal electronically. Once we've reached a form of your proposal that is mutually agreeable, I'll post it on the class home page so that the other students can see what you are doing and perhaps interact with you concerning your project.
