I would be grateful for any pointers on Grammar Checkers in
English and French: products, papers, reviews, references, etc.
Many thanks for your help.
You can also answer directly to the address below. If i get enough

Subject: OCR/ICR


Does anybody know whether it is possible that an OCR or ICR
treats at the same time two or more ALPHABETS (e.g. latin-greek)
latin-greek-coptic etc.) and puts tags where the alphabet
changes? And whether it is possible to teach an OCR or ICR
an entirely new alphabet, bypassing its embedded knowledge?
With many thanks,

Subject: address?

Could anyone tell me the e-mail address of Jennifer Newman at the
University of Edinburgh? It would be enough if someone could provide
me with the address "string" for Edinburgh University.
While I'm at it, could anyone provide the e-mail address of Elisabeth
Harder-Gersdorff at Universitaet Bielefeld?

Subject: Philosophy media

We have a bit of money at UCFV for the purchase of media (videos,
laserdiscs, CD-ROMs) relevant to philosophy.

Any recommendations as to items or sources of such media would be
greatly appreciated.

I will summarize responses to the list.

Thank you.

Subject: opera CD

I have been told that someone wrote an opera based on Philip Dick's
novel _VALDIS_. Does anyone know if this has been produced in CD
format, and if so what is the label/catalogue number, assuming it is
still available. thank you, James McSwain, Tuskegee University
