   **for those who wonder what's NotaBene, its an
   "enhanced" Word Processor based on the XyWrite (Dos)
   engine and having foreign fonts (Greek, Cyrillic,
   Hebrew and Latin, therefore much used by Biblical
   scholars who need to see comparative text), and
   many add-ons for the scholar (Bibliographic programs,
   the superb footnote and data management of XY etc.)

   You might want to look around (SimTel archives, for
   example) for NB "programs" which have some related
   XPL programs. You might see if you can get a copy
   of the rather clever NB demo disk written in XPL.

========== and for those who have too much e-mail, you can
   see the NB list's 'mirror' on the Usenet netnews group
   called bit.listserv.notabene.
   Use your nn, tin, rn or other Netnews reader to the
   group. About 20 messages a day.

   The netnews group might be rather cryptic since
   all you have to go on is the header, and some
   people--I mention no names--don't change or append
   the header if the enclosed subject changes.
   Still there are tools to skim netnews, and in the
   next months more and more 'robots' or 'webbots'
   to scan the huge lump of text of the NetNews groups. sample
