Subject: encoding standards for hypertext?
Two colleagues and I are developing Macintosh software for scholarly
note-taking. It will surprise no one, I suspect, that we are using
hypertextual techniques for connecting notes to each other. We are now
at the point at which it would be useful to know what work has been done
on standards for encoding hypertextual links. If there are any
front-runners, we'd be inclined to choose one and follow it. If there
are any cogent arguments for or against any scheme, we'd like to
consider them.
As always, forgive ignorance of the obvious, but please point it out!

Subject: Tustep software
I recall there was a discussion about Tustep, a program developed at
Tuebingen, within the past year. Would someone who has the information
readily available please forward to me the address and purchase
information? We are interested in the MS-DOS version rather than the
mainframe version.
Thank you.

The recent posting on TACT from the developer inspires me to repeat a
suggestion that may have been overlooked earlier. TACT is freely
distributable, but the developers charge $25 or $30 for media and handling.
Would it be possible to put a copy on the Humanist ListServ, so that
subscribers could order the files electronically and save the media fee?
Thanks,
David J. Birnbaum
