Re: Digital Pali Reader 2.3.2

The DPR does generally work under Mac OS with Firefox 1.5 (but not
even a closely related browser, such as Camino or Seamonkey)
--however, the "offline" PTS dictionary does not work --likely because
there is no documentation indicating where in the "tree" it presumes
its relative links should find the folder.

I have been able to create my own HTML menu for the PTS dictionary
(offline) by re-habilitating some of the javascript into link-files.
I suppose I could do something similar with the huge bulk of the
commentaries ...

Several of the search functions don't seem to work --but there are
many other methods to achieve this sort of thing once you have the
data on disk, so it doesn't much matter.

The fundamental feature of looking up text by kappo & ka.n.do
certainly does work --and I'm sure this is the main attraction.

In any case, it is a very impressive beginning to the project.

If you could bring a professional Java programmer into the team, you
could soon have a full-scale "G.U.I." on the desktop, etc.

May I ask what the source is of the raw text used as data for the
Commentaries?  I presume this is from one of the Thai digitization
projects similar to "BUDSIR"?
