I see somebody's been having a bit of a cross-post.

Pretty lazy self-promotion really.

Also just had a skim. I started with the hope that it couldn't possibly be worse than its own cringeworthy title, but I was wrong. Mate, on the offchance you're reading this, stop writing and fuck off.

If you've written a book and want to show it off fine, but he honest about the fact you're advertising it.

At least he's not trying to crypto mine us...

Just pondering - I can't immediately find anyone who's written a miner in native postscript or pdf, rather than just crashing out of the reader and running it locally. Surely someone's done it, just because?

Also, yes, OP - I downloaded your work. Sorry, but I'm clearly not the target audience. Washed straight over me in a wave of slightly annoyed indifference.

People have managed to stick miners in favicons, and some browsers have been dumb enough to execute them.

Postscript is definitely possible, PDF less so. That said, Adobe Reader handles embedded Postscript Type 3 fonts just fine meaning that you can happily embed any Postscript program you choose into a single character of your PDF.*

Obviously this is assuming you don't want to just be lazy and run the miner in embedded Javascript.

* I'm sure Arnold Rimmer would be chuffed.
