</div>Good call on the recipe navigation, but is there any reason you have to<br>
remove blank pages? The fact that there's commented-out code for that<br>
behavior in the original source suggests to me that the current behavior<br>
(with the blank pages) is intentional; I can't speak for Alec, of course,<br>
but I have a feeling it would frustrate players not to know how many<br>
recipes there are in total, especially given that there's an achievement<br>
for finding all of them.<br>
