- LIke Paul Bodin, I have no problem searching Ibid files with
- Lingua characters from multiple font sets (i.e., Arabic
- transliteration). I store and call to the screen all files in
- compressed format and can enter any character with CTRL and ALT
- keys according to the way I have remapped the keyboard. As I
- reported last month, the only problem I have had with Ibid is
- in moving the DAT files from NB 3.1 to 4.0 when they contained
- special characters combined with various underlining codes.
- Problems in finding entries in 4.0 with these characters,
- therefore, may well stem from the process of converting them from
- 3.1 type files.
