Infomeister-Ukraine -- New Software

[Max Pyziur]

Greetings.

Some new software uploads to Infomeister - Ukrainian:

For the Mac people:

1)Kozak Entertainment
This is a shareware program created by Natalia and Dmytro Kovalov.
These are educational programs for children which teach reading of
Ukrainian using images and melodies from Ukrainian folklore and
popular culture.  From Lviv and currently living and studying in Tokyo,
Natalia and Dmytro offer these programs as a by-product of their efforts
to teach their children Ukrainian.  The Macintosh Ukrainian System is
necessary for this program.  Please note that the package is over 3
megabytes in size.

2) Transliterated/homophonic keyboards for Ukrainian using the
Apple Standard Cyrillic and KOI8 Cyrillic codings.
Three keyboard layouts (Kyiv, Lviv, and Poltava) in two different
codings makes for six (complicated mathematical thinking facilitated
this computation) new keyboard offerings from Zenon Feszczak.  Consult
Zenon's "Ukrainization of the Macintosh" page for the different layouts.

For the Windows (3.1) people:

1) Tranliterated/homophonic keyboards for Ukrainian to be used with
Winkey.

CP1251 Cyrillic codings.  These can be found in the zip file
