Quoting Dan Harvey :

> The 3.1 release of ACORNS language revitalization software is now 
> available at http://cs.sou.edu/~harveyd/acorns. This software can be 
> freely downloaded for non commercial use. Our hope is that many 
> tribes will find it useful as they work to revitalize their language 
> and culture.
>
> This release corrects some bugs that came up and adds new features. 
> The download web page also contains an alternate install procedure to 
> avoid the security issues that come up on some systems. We've greatly 
> improved the on-line documentation and added an ACORNS user manual in 
> pdf format.
>
> Among the new features are:
> 1) Recognition of all indigenous keyboards as long as they are 
> properly installed on your system in ttf format.
> 2) An easier way to create web pages out of ACORNS lessons.
> 3) Automatic association of files with an '.lnx' extension with the 
> ACORNS application.
> 4) Ability to launch ACORNS from a command line to open selected files.
> 4) Improved integration with MAC systems.
>
> We plan to release version 4.0 this coming summer. It will include, 
> among other things, a talking dictionary, with the ability to import 
> electronic formats created by linguists. It will also include a 
> couple of games making use of the dictionary.
>
> Please let me know of any problems you might run into. We welcome 
> your feedback (harvey at sou.edu).
>
> With respect, dan
