Dear Editors,

HUMANIST is always a good source of information and although I can immagine and
also see on my screen that you are swamped with requests I would like to add a
short question you may want to post.



I am interested in text linguistic approaches to Hypertext (text coherence,
intertextuality, definition of "text" etc). Any suggestions, ideas, quotes,
references are helpful. thank you.

Subject: Boiler plate sentences manager sought


I do a lot of technical translating and I often come up with repetitous
"boiler plate" sentences, which I either have to retranslate or trace back
to copy and paste. I was wondering if there was any kind of multiclipboard
where I could store these standard phrases/procedures and then paste them
into the document when needed by only pressing a keyword.
I think something like this exists on the Mac, but I would like to have
the like for use with Word for Windows. Or it would be nice if there
were a popup list-box where to select the desired phrase for pasting.

Please reply directly, thanks.

On behalf of a newly-connected member of the English faculty
here, I wanted to find out if anyone was aware of an electronic
discussion group, list, etc. which deals--often or exclusively--
with Victorian or 19th century studies. I saw nothing germane in the
second edition of the Directory published by the Association of
Research Libraries, but perhaps someone knows of something new
or previously unheralded. Thanks.
