Subject: HyperCard biographies
Willard's mention of the HyperCard biography stack constructed by
Steve DeRose moves me to wonder if it is available to all Humanists.
As one of those who took part in tagging the biographical data some
time ago, I have occasionally wondered what had become of it all, but
had more or less forgotten the project until Willard raised the
subject.

Subject: edited biographies in HyperCard
In response to David Graham's query, I am happy to report that the
Centre for Computing in the Humanities will be distributing Steve
DeRose's HyperCard stack of the biographies. At the moment I do not know
if it is practical to put the stack on the file-server, since it is
quite large, but in any case we will sell it for the cost of the
diskette and postage. The stack is really quite splendid, and I would
like to thank Steve and those who helped him.
The availability of the stack will be announced shortly on Humanist.

Subject: Indexing and item numbering
Ever since Randall Donaldson's request for a way of numbering index
items, I have been trying in vain to send a recently written line numbering
utility to the NOTABENE list. It appears that some of the nodes are not
connected. At any rate, I had grown tired of jumping through hoops to get
Nota Bene to place hard numbers into a text. I hadn't thought of messing
around with page breaks and headers, so I wrote the attached utility
instead. The muck at the end of this note is the uuencoded utility. Define
it, copy it to a new file called number.uue and uudecode it.
The utility was written to number lines of poetry in electronic MSS. It
can only start at the top of a file, and it numbers all paragraphs except
those marked by an opening square bracket. The first line of the file
to be numbered is skipped because it is usually the title of the poem in
my applications. The number of the first line to be numbered must be set
when running the utility. The syntax is as follows:
RUN NUMBER N
where N = the number of the first line to be numbered. I know NOTABENE is
the more approriate forum for this, but, as I say, I haven't been able to
get through.

Subject: Greek fonts in WordPerfect
In reply to Harold Wilson's query about Greek fonts:
My fellow student in classical languages has developped Greek Fonts for
several Laserprinters (among which the HP Laserjet) and matrix-printers.
He also made a printer-driver for WordPerfect. He sells it for (I believe)
appr. Dfl. 100,= (which is about 40 US-dollar).
His address is:
Drs. Wim Liesker
Nieuwendammerdijk 16

THE NETHERLANDS
Phone: +31 20 327428
If you insist in using email, I can forward your message to him.
