-I don't know exactly what's happening here. When I tried
-the links just now, they failed as you said. But I am sure
-that I did a 'refresh' (see bottom right corner of page)
-and tested this yesterday. 'refresh' recreates the files.
-
-So I did a 'refresh' again. And now they work again.
-
-Please try again. If the links don't work. Hit 'refresh'
-and see if that helps.

-When I click on any of those buttons, the same page indicating the non-existence of the document under consideration appears.
-But on hitting refresh, and then clicking on the button seem to work for me.
-
-What's refresh anyway? And what does tangle button, which makes it appearance on the rhs of the greyish download strip, does?

-Must be some subtle coding error I guess, but something seems
-cause these files to disappear after some period of time. Right
-now I do not have any idea of the possible cause.
-
-The 'refresh' button causes the entire contents of the page to
-be re-generated from the underlying source (i.e. the source is
-what you see whey you click 'edit') and is the same as the contents
-of the 'src' link - it is the pamphlet source file itself. 'refresh'
-runs 'weave' on the pamphlet file to generate the LaTeX ('tex')
-file and then runs latex to generate the 'dvi', and dvips to
-generate the 'ps' file and ps2pdf to generate the 'pdf' and
-finally dvipng to display the graphic image of the first page.
-
-Pamphlet files are intended to be used for *both* documentation
-and the program code itself.
-
-'tangle' is used to extract the code chunks (programs) from the
-pamphlet file. In the case of the Wester problem set, this
-pamphlet file does not contain any separately identified code
-chunks (but it should!).
-
-For more information about pamphlet files see [Literate Programming].

-I think I found what was causing the 'pdf' and related files to be
-deleted. It turned out that the LaTeX output generation in another
-part of FriCASWiki (actually part of LatexWiki - latexWrapper.py) was
-being too agressive about cleaning up what it assumed were just unneeded
-temporary files. The result was that if someone clicked 'Save' on some
-other page that contained some new LaTeX or Axiom code, then as a
-side-effect of generating the required png images, it also deleted
-files that it should not have.
-
-Please let me know if the problem of disappearing files happens again.
