Hypertext, graphics and multimedia capabilities are valuable in
learning many things - it is difficult to learn to pronounce languages
with no sound models, for example.

What formats and media are there available and what would be good to
use in UU?  Some that come into my mind:

Text/hypertext:

- Usenet articles / mail (for roughly all environments)
- GNU texinfo/info (for Unix at least, apparently also MS-DOS)
- gopher, www and wais (on Internet)
- ftp arvchives
- Hypercard (Mac)

Multimedia

- HyTime
- gopher

Graphics

- postscript
