Re: Character List (was Space preserving)

[Daniel Speck <dspeck@xxxxxxx>]

Ken,

While I am not doing much with DSSSL these days, I still lurk on dssslist. A
more up-to-date version of the character names table (and DSSSL script that
creates it) can be found at ftp://ftp.bna.com/dspeck/jade/charnames . This
version incorporates changes that you made to the original DSSSL script to
improve the appearance of the table.

Hope to see you at the Extreme Markup conference in Montreal this year. I'll be
the one with the implants.
