Any reason to use rawgit over just raw.githubusercontent.com #39

https://github.com/larsenwork/monoid/blob/gh-pages/index.html#L1042 - I changed it just to test and seems to be working just fine.

RawGit: "Files are served via MaxCDN's super fast global CDN."

Also so that Monoid doesn't get blacklisted for serving binary files from a repo. That's bad :stuck_out_tongue:

Also, why not set the Download link here? https://github.com/larsenwork/monoid/blob/gh-pages/index.html#L1110

Something like:

$('#download').attr('href',FontName);

That would allow people to copy the link to share with others.

@larsenwork Basically, using githubusercontent.com is bad for Monoid longterm. It is also slower. Using the CDN means that everyone across the world gets equally fast download speeds, basically.

Ok, switched back - just did it as part of debugging this morning :smile:

Download link - I want people to share larsenwork.com/monoid instead of direct links since they change when we make changes to build.py so to avoid future 404's...

Maybe setup a way to share option choices then?
