I'm working with Ruth King, a Linguistics Prof here at York University
on a sociolinguistic study of PEI Acadian. We are looking around for
a package (the less expensive the better) that will help manage
phonetically transcribed text. Here's what we're looking for:
---A text-editing/wp package that handles the standard IPA
(International Phonetics Association) Alphabet, complete with the
standard diacritical marks.
---Good quality/readability on screen and dot-matrix printer
---Quick set up, easy to learn, and a reasonable run speed
---As inexpensive as possible (PD/Shareware would be very nice!)
---It should run on a Zenith pc (we're not interested in Mac software)
Please mail advice, recommendations, horror stories, etc., to
either/both of the addresses below (I will summarize and post if there
is interest). Thanks very much,
Steven
