Chassell" Reply-To: bob@rattlesnake.com X-Yahoo-Group-Post: member; u=810561 No-one said anything against flat text files, but they'll have to include a few The gismu list: 01436 Lojban gismu list 9/26/94 01436 Draft dictionary is simply and regularly formatted. It is easy to write a computer program to produce pretty printed output, with tags, as I have done (and posted the program here some time ago). Five entries [** see below] do not fit the regular format and need fixing in the original. I did that by hand. The cmavo list is also simply and regularly formatted, albeit different than the gismu list. I urge you to write something that does as good a job as the already existing program. You may not like my choice of tags or formatting: please choose your own and consider adding more typesetting mark up, too. -- Robert J.
