- ----------
-
- I am interested to know what kinds of text processing applications people
- are using out there. For example, a common text processing application
- would be converting the text file for a paper version copy of a book into
- a file that could be loaded into an online display environment. Or,
- processing the indices of multiple books into one master index. What
- kinds of other things are people doing out there?
-
- Also, I'd be interested to know what languages/utilities/programs you
- use to effect the processing. For example, do you use a C program or
- a Pascal program?
