Dear LinguistList

I'm beginning to study Argument Structure deeper and I would like to ask
for a reading list from anybody who has one. Likewise, do I need a reading
list for any and all works about Equationality. Any reference is
appreciated!

Thanks truly,

Hi,
Many thanks for the numerous responses to my previous query concerning
the location of the nasalisation symbol in phonetic fonts.
IPAPhon does indeed possess such a diacritic!
Thanks also for the suggestion to use the following utility for viewing
fonts:
http://aritechdev.hypermart.net/ecm.zip
http://aritechdev.hypermart.net/ecm.zip

Two problems remains though:
- the tilde is well centred on most vowels except on the larger
"ash" vowel, where it centres above the "e" part of
the character;
- the diacritic prints just fine but looks rather like a macron on a
computer screen.
Any suggestions?
Marc Fryd
