Dragi SEELANGers,
I will be Ljubljana, Slovenia, for the summer working on a reverse dicty
and attempting to get Slovenian literature and dialect material onto
the Internet. As you may have surmised, there are font difficulties to be
dealt with.
Standard Slovenian has fewer characters with hacheks than Czech. The only
question here is: How would you suggest that these texts should be made
available on the Net so that the texts would be readable using Netscape or some
other browser?
The other problem is stickier. The dialect material has many diacritics and
some characters end up with two and even three. Unitary characters a la IBM
do not seem to be the solution. The word processor which I have written
for the Amiga in C, however, can handle this with no difficulty.
If you have any suggestions yourself or can you point me to someone who
might either be of help or be interested in the problem, please contact me
in one way or another. I leave for Ljubljana July 5th.
All the best,
David
