Subject: OCR Software for non-english languages
I am trying to find out what optical character recognition software there
is writtten for languages other than English. I am especially interested
in software for German, Hebrew, Russian, and Arabic. Please reply
directly because I am not a member of Humanist list. Thank you for
your assistance.

Subject: Heidelberg Records
A colleague of mine is interested in obtaining information about the
exact year in which the DD degree was conferred by the University of
Heidelberg on a certain James Pembroke also known as James William
Charles Pennington (1809-1871) of New York's Shiloh ("First Colored")
Presbyterian Church. Pembroke published _The Fugitive Blacksmith_ in
London in 1849, and seems to have received the Heidelberg degree soon
thereafter. Does anyone know how this information can be obtained? Is
there a Heidelberg University Archive? The name would probably be
Pennington, for Heidelberg purposes.

Subject: MLA and Computers
Is there any ready available electronic information on MLA
supported/sponsored computer activities? For example, I have seen
references to various MLA activities under the leadership of Hans
Ru%timann, but (as a non-member of MLA) nothing in any detail. Is there
still a MLA consortium for computer services? What does it do? How is
the MLA bibliography available to outsiders? Is there an MLA electronic
text archive, or electronic publications archive? Etc. [I really mean
to say "etc." here = "and similar items pertinent to this sort of
discussion".] In trying to push other professional societies to get
involved, to what extent does MLA provide a model?

Subject: Query: Archeological 3D reconstruction with CAD software
I am posting the following for two colleagues of Archeology
who don't have already access to an account.
"We are very interested about "3D reconstruction" in
Archeological sites using a CAD program ("AutoCAD" or similar)
on MS-DOS. We are working on different buildings, rooms, etc.
All information on the subject will be welcome and highly
appreciated.

I will forward them all answers. Thanks in advance.
