Dear Mr. Anderson,
My name is Kittiphol and I am a new member in Pali Group as well.
After following-up to the link below and tried downloading
gajjayana.pdf It shows that the file is damaged and could not be
repaired.
Some of pdf listings which I enter to see the content inside are not
completed. They showed only the introduction and no more explanation of
any grammatical theory.
Kindly suggest.
Best regards,
Kittiphol
You can also access the pdf files on the Buddhaghosa College's website
by going directly to the pdf directory at:
http://buddhaghosa.mcu.ac.th/pdf/ . There, you will see a listing of
the pdf files with names in Roman characters, any of which can be
downloaded eg. Kaccaayana's grammatical suttas are in gajjayana.pdf.
Hope this helps.

Dear Piya,
To add to Ven. Dhammanando's remarks, I'd like to mention that the
Thai characters appear correctly on my computer with Windows 95 and
Internet Explorer 5.5. I don't remember exactly how this font came to
be installed on my computer but I can think of two possibilities: it
came about through a pop-up prompt for an installation from Microsoft
either upon receiving an email message from a Thai friend or while
visiting the budsir.org website. At any rate, it was all done
automatically after clicking on the ok button.
