An Invitation from NEACH
(Please forgive any multiple postings.)
The Northeast Association for Computers and the Humanities invites
you to attend its next meeting in New York City at the IBM Building,
57th Street & Madison Avenue on WEDNESDAY, APRIL 15, 1992, at 1:30 p.m.
for a panel and demonstration of two new word processing packages using
the XyWrite format, NOTA BENE 4.0 and SIGNATURE 1.0.
The featured presenters will be STEVE SIEBERT of Dragonfly
Software, who will demonstrate NOTA BENE 4.0 LINGUA with its extensive new
language capability, and CHRISTINE RIVERA of MicroDynamics Plus, who will
demonstrate XyQuest's new SIGNATURE program with its many new features and
graphical interface. Mr. Siebert will also demonstrate ORBIS, a new
textbase package designed to work with Nota Bene and Signature.
Other panelists will include ALLEN HILL of Skadden, Arps, who
will discuss Atex, the mainframe ancestor of XyWrite, and GEORGE VALLASI,
v.p. of Chernow Editorial and director of the New York XyWrite SIG,
who will discuss XyWrite III Plus.
XyWrite was for a long time time program of choice for writers,
journalists, editors, programmers, and typesetters. Nota Bene was
endorsed by the MLA and became a favorite of humanists and users of
multi-lingual writing software. Now Signature has been released to
replace XyWrite III Plus and as an upgrade path for IBM's Displaywrite.
Don't miss this unusual and exciting presentation.
