Korean Tutorial Files
ftp://catcode.com/pub/kintro.zip
This contains all the HTML, sound, and image files except for the pictures of the Korean syllables. Unpack it into a directory named kintro

Syllable Pictures (24 x 24)
ftp://catcode.com/pub/syll.zip
This .zip file expands into a directory called syll. It, in turn, contains a directory named ltr, which contains the images of the individual letters of the alphabet. The syll directory also contains 19 subdirectories c1 through c19, one for each of the "main consonants."

You should move the syll folder and its contents (which come to a total of some 4,100 files, so you have been warned!) into the kintro folder which you created when unpacking kintro.zip above.

Syllable Pictures (16 x 16)
ftp://catcode.com/pub/syll16.zip
These are currently unused in the tutorial, but they're available if you want to use them. This directory is organized in the same fashion as the 24 x 24 images.

Programming Information about the Syllable Images

This section is for those people who wish to write Javascript code to manipulate the syllable images, or wish to understand the code they've downloaded. If you're not a programmer, you may safely ignore this information.

Each syllable's image has the name consisting of the letter s followed by a number which is generated by this formula:

    number = (begin_consonant-1) * 588 + (vowel-1) * 28 + (end_consonant) + 1
The begin_consonant is the number of the first consonant as shown in the table below:
123456 78910
1112131415 16171819

The vowel number is given according to this table:
123456 7891011
1213141516 1718192021

The end_consonant is given as shown in this table (if there is no end consonant, use a value of zero).
