Thanks Trevor-

Here is a note I sent to the list I moderate:

Technology has advanced to the point that I think it possible for us to begin using Greek and Hebrew in our postings. But we have to have in common a new mailing program and a suite of freely distributed fonts.

So, if you wish to be able to view Greek and Hebrew in future postings here, may I please, humbly request that you do the following.

First, download the free Thunderbird mailer-
http://www.mozilla.org/products/thunderbird/

Install it.

Then, so that we all have the same fonts, download this zip file (from my resources page- where I have available the Scholars Press fonts- both Greek and Hebrew in one zipped file)

http://web.infoave.net/~jwest/scholars.zip

Unzip the file and install the fonts.

You will then be able to choose the font you wish to use on the Thunderbird pull down menu and viola! What was once uncertain transcription becomes certain text.

Best,

Jim
