Subject: Setup for TI286

We desparately are looking for a SETUP program (and diagnostics)
for a Texas Instruments Business Pro 286 Computer that we have had
for about 5 years and now needs to be setup again, after our
disks have all disappeared. No one in Israel seems to be able to
supply new disks. Anybody out there able to supply such an animal
(and hopefully send it by e-mail to me, uuencoding would be fine)
will receive our eternal gratitude.

A colleague of mine has lost almost all his seeing ability due
to an accident; now he hopes that he can continue his work by
ussing computing tools for blind as braille lines and a voice
card. The latter seems a rather serious problem, since all
types of themhe has tried can handle only one language. But he
needs something which can produce at least english, german,
french an spanish (most of his work deals with latin-american
literature).
Can anyone recommend an appropriate system?
Thanks,
Fritz Heberlein

Subject: Non-academic e-mail to UK

My daughter married and moved to London, England, last November. She
and I would like to be able to communicate via e-mail (she has a Mac
but I am IBM -- hope that's not a problem). But she is not
an academic and thus does not have a link-up with the nets I am
familiar with. I would appreciate advice from English colleagues (or
others with useful information) about commercial networks she might use
to reach the Internet. The systems people here at U. of T. tell me that
Compuserve has a gateway to the Internet, but I don't know if Compuserve
is available in the UK, nor have I had any experience with it myself.
If anyone has information of interest to the list, by all means reply
to Humanist; otherwise, I would welcome a personal message. Germaine

A colleague who uses Macs has asked about software for scanning non-Latin
based texts. If anyone has current information, please send it to me
galiard@let.rug.nl.
Thank you very much.
