@murray If you'd keep the files along the notebook in the same directory you could use NotebookDirectory[] to address them. So, I'm not too sure about the advantages of my own solution. Yes, it means having to drag around only a single file instead of a directory, but is the latter so difficult?

This is a wonderful substitute for using a file:// hyperlink in that you don't have to remember to put the target file in a specified location. Of course you have to worry about the notebook getting too big when the added files are large.

Not much you can do if you want to code binary files as ASCII. You could try if Base64 coding helps for compressed files. | |

Also, the notebook file size gets roughly the double the size of the attached files. Is there something we can do about it? Is it possible for the save as to keep the original file name as default? | |
