Re: [dm-l] Junius 11 CD
by Larry Swain 14 Jul '04

It is truly fabulous, a great piece of work. Samuel Fanous from the Bodleian just gave me the grand tour and I have to say I am impressed. Beautiful images of every page, some terrific features (such as going from an edited text directly to the spot in the mss where the text is, even if in the mss it begins in the middle of the line--the markers go to the first word of the edited line and bracket it for you), bibliography, search capability, etc. The magnification of the images works fairly well I think, and on a powerful PC rather than a laptop would be able to have several windows open at once. The only drawback is that they chose to use the Kennedy translations of the poems, but then most of us aren't interested in the translations. Reasonable price too...regularly £50 (49.99). I'm buying this one when I get home. BTW Martin, I dropped your name to Samuel (I know, I'm a name dropper) and he'd like to meet you and talk to you.

TAN: XML editors
by Peter Baker 13 Jul '04

13 Jul '04

Now I understand why thing are so quiet around here: everyone's in Leeds. Still, maybe I can get some guidance from the group. I'm looking for a good XML editor, either cross-platform (e.g. Java) or written for Linux/UNIX. I want the usual things: support for both DTDs and Schemas, auto-completion of tags and attributes, etc. I don't mind paying if the price is not outrageous. But here's the big thing: I've been using Emacs/PSGML and jEdit with the XML plugin, and both are good, but both require that one use the mouse extensively. I've always hated moving my hand back and forth between mouse and keyboard, but lately I've managed to acquire a condition (temporary I trust) that makes it painful to use the mouse more than a little. So what I'm looking for is an XML editor that can be operated largely with the keyboard, with as little mouse input as possible. Suggestions/sharing of experiences most welcome. Peter

In preparation for the launch of our new web site (probably early next month), I've updated the digital medievalist web page <http://www.digitalmedievalist.org/>. The calls for papers for the new journal and our two Kalamazoo sessions are posted there. Please feel free to pass the link on to anybody you know who might be interested. -dan -- Daniel Paul O'Donnell, PhD Associate Professor of English University of Lethbridge Lethbridge AB T1K 3M4 Tel.

Call for Papers: Digital Medievalist Journal
by Daniel O'Donnell 08 Jul '04

08 Jul '04

Call for Papers [Please Cross-Post] The Digital Medievalist (DM) is a new on-line and refereed journal intended for medievalists working with digital media. The first issue is scheduled for publication this fall, with subsequent issues in Spring 2005 and Summer 2005. The journal is edited by the executive of the Digital Medievalist Project, hosts of the <dm-l(a)uleth.ca> mailing list: Peter Baker, Martin Foys, Murray McGillivray, Kenna Olsen, Daniel Paul O'Donnell, Roberto Rosselli del Turco, and Elizabeth Solopova. Our second issue will include a selection of papers on technological topics from Medieval Conferences in Kalamazoo and Leeds 2004 as well as other articles. DM accepts work of original research and scholarship, notes on technological topics, commentary pieces discussing developments in the field, bibliographic and review articles, and project reports describing beginning, on-going, or completed projects. Contributors may also describe tools and utilities they have developed, stylesheets, markup-methods, imaging techniques, project management methods, etc. Future editions will also contain reviews of publications, web-sites and digital projects. All contributions are refereed by authorities in humanities computing. Contributions to DM should concern topics likely to be of interest to medievalists working with digital media, though they need not be exclusively medieval in focus. Contributions should be of an appropriate length to the subject under discussion. We anticipate most will be between 1000 and 10,000 words. Our preferred format is TEI-Lite xml. If you would like to discuss alternative submission formats, please contact the editorial board. Submissions received by September 30, 2004 will be eligible for consideration for publication in the inaugural (Fall 2004) issue. Contributions received after that date may be considered for subsequent issues. Contact Addresses: For general enquiries, please contact the General Editor <daniel.odonnell(a)uleth.ca> or the editorial board <digitalmedievalist(a)uleth.ca>. Individual editors are also available to discuss contributions. Addresses and general areas of interests are listed below: Peter Baker <psb6m(a)virginia.edu>: Interface Design and Utilities Martin Foys <foys(a)hermes.hood.edu>: Images and Material Culture Murray McGillivray <mmcgilli(a)ucalgary.ca>: Structural Markup and Tools Daniel Paul O'Donnell <daniel.odonnell(a)uleth.ca>: General Editor; Structural Markup; Project Reports Kenna Olsen <klolsen(a)ucalgary.ca>: Review Editor Roberto Rosselli de Turco <rosselli(a)ling.unipi.it>: Bibliography, Resources, and References Elizabeth Solopova <elizabeth.solopova(a)bodley.ox.ac.uk>: Metadata and Text Analysis -- Daniel Paul O'Donnell, PhD Associate Professor of English University of Lethbridge Lethbridge AB T1K 3M4 Tel.

Yes, it's up and running. Nice site too. I'm browsing with Mozilla Firefox 0.7.

Re: [dm-l] [Fwd: encoding maps, graphics with text?] Problemswith port 8080??
by Joris van.Zundert 08 Jul '04

08 Jul '04

Now I wonder what I am doing right (or wrong?) Still works fine overhere on the http://lingo.dcf.uvic.ca:8080/exist/graves/index.xml URL. http://lingo.dcf.uvic.ca does say 'PHP works' also to me. I usually do not have problems connecting to any portnumber. Very very odd indeed. Joris >>> peter.robinson(a)dmu.ac.uk 7/8/04 11:55:18 >>> I have tried with various browsers, but all naturally in Mac OS X, and from different places, and just cannot get through. I get 'the operation timed out when trying to connect to..' or just 'cannot connect to..' I am trying http://lingo.dcf.uvic.ca:8080/exist/graves/index.xml When I try just http://lingo.dcf.uvic.ca I get the cryptic 'PHP works'. ON the face of it, it looks like something to do with port 8080. And checking, I discover.. 1. I do not seem able to connect to any sites with 8080 2. But can connect to: 8000, 8081, etc 3. There is nothing in the settings in this computer which appears to bar access to any ports 8080. Netstat does not show anything running on a 8080 So very odd indeed Anyone else see this behaviour?

TAN: Spyware
by Daniel O'Donnell 07 Jul '04

07 Jul '04

Does anybody have a recommendation for a good anti-spyware program? I'm always reluctant just to download one on the theory that an anti-spyware program would be a good trojan horse. As far as I can tell, my antivirus program has done a good job in the past, but I should probably check specifically. -dan -- Daniel Paul O'Donnell, PhD Associate Professor of English University of Lethbridge Lethbridge AB T1K 3M4 Tel.
