Questions - Do I need to Speccy Universal Encyclopedic Dictionary?

                             Questions

                             ~~~~~~~
I ought to climb back again with the readers of the Swazi 
AlCoNews. They do not write to the editor anything over ten 
rooms. 

1. Do I need to Speccy Universal Encyclopedic Dictionary?
I propose to consider the draft dictionary in 10 thematic discs 
that contain up to 70000 in the amount of articles - 80-90% of 
the largest dictionaries of original publishing house "Russian 
Encyclopedia". Custom wheels, but not protected. Breakthrough 
search of any fragment in all the articles on disk, plus a 
small text editor to cut the necessary quotations. Draft 3 
mesyatsa.Rabota mostly routine - sort articles on the subject. 
But someone has to write for this sort handy tool, as well as 
programs Search glued papers and articles, duplicates, automatic

constructing the index files, sharing articles on N pieces. on 
file. Source materials - vocabulary revision 1996 in text form

(20 megabytes). This dictionary as a text proved to be a useful 
tool in reading serious literature, I use them about a year. 
Compared with paper dictionaries lost stress, characters with 
accents (including e), tables, figures, maps, two-dimensional 
chemical and all the mathematical formulas. (In Practice maps 
and formulas of the dictionaries I've never been required.) 
1.1. If anyone have any newer version of the dictionary, if one 
considers what kind of text - a mandatory requirement?

1.2. Is there any person wishing to do this project?

2. A similar question on the Encyclopædia Britannica
Efron. This text is published by the PTO, "Russian Word" from 
the original publisher of dictionaries Brockhaus and Efron, 
written in the turn of the XIX-XX centuries. 25 megabytes. The 
possibility of a thematic partition has not been studied. Very 
large and detailed articles, but few of them. How many - is 
unknown. Need? 2.1. Is there willing to spend a thematic 
partition? Partition the smaller the better - a lot easier to 
combine the themes of disks.


3. Is there not wanting to do the release of good books in the 
shell? Need someone who is not afraid to check a text file

length of several hundreds of kilobytes on typos, format it
with careful stretching and paint according to the agreed 
rules. The project is on a lot of books, the project may be 
occupied by any number of persons. There is a wish? 3.1. 
Whether there is wanting to do design and music for such books? 

4. Accept anyone to tell me e-mail
box with a redirect to keep Fido and the promise of 3 or more 
years to it does not shut down?

4.1. Agree whether he or anyone else to see to it that all
my releases (including AlCoNews) promptly fell to the
zx.da.ru? Responsibility - a moral. Inability to fulfill 
obligations - immediately report! 

5. Are there people who promise to maintain a regular column in 
Inferno Guide? Requirements: major article every six months 
(first term - October 20, 2004) to notify about the change of 
addresses and phone numbers for each of their change (in this 
case, you must ensure that this information reached the 
editorial Inferno Guide); hate proofreading up to zarezaniya 
article. 5.1. Is there willing to adopt and publish 
"slaughtered" (not admitted in the Inferno Guide) article? 5.2. 
Are there any interested person to select published in Inferno 
Guide articles for reprint in the paper the press? Ready to 
take the all relations with the editors? 70% of the fee to send 
author Article; postage out of pocket. Can decide - to send or 
not send a photocopy of pages from the author Article (either 
by themselves, these sheets, or all edition). This is a matter 
of convenience for the author - the author is desirable to see 
how disfigured the text! 5.3. Is there willing to provide the 
intro to Inferno Guide? Although would be for one room? The 
size of the sectors - the smart! Giving a source to replace the 
wording could post! 5.4. Need a splash image, you two. 
Qualitative (s). 5.5. Need any graphics for the articles to the 
right to failure. You can not Spectrum formats, but the 
original. 5.6. Who will agree to interview celebrities for 
publication in the Inferno Guide? At the request of the 
editorial board and on its own initiative?



                      The answer to riddle # 28:

List of releases Invaders 8 has been published, mainly to
honestly, where in fact, sticking Born Dead # 0G and
Last 128 # 1-3. Also - in order to demonstrate that such
lists are maintained at all (there are separate lists of 
releases Alone Coder'a and examination of the literature can be 
compiled lists Our long-distance calls, visits, visitors from 
other cities, come and gone by letters). Else - to indicate 
that it was well written BEFORE ... Also - in order to take 
empty space in the room:)
