Alex Heatley of Wellington Univ., N.Z. inquired concerning Cyrillic on the
Mac.  A truly awesome font package exists for the Mac and, presumably
shortly, also for the Atari ST and Amiga, which can use Laserwriters with
font-smoothing.  This is from:

Ecological Linguistics
P.O. Box 15156
Washington, D.C. 20003

The package can handle the several varieties of Cyrillic, including old
church Slavonic, as well as such nifty things as Sanskrit, Mongolian,
Cambodian, Bengali, Armenian, old Georgian..... ad infinitum.  The package
runs with all normal Mac Software and was going for about $30 the last I
heard.  Best get your copy early, before Apple makes claims to the enhanced
look and feel, and the price goes up.
