I'm involed in a research group on a manuscript (probably medieval but date is unknown) in which there are unknown letter shapes and language and it's still untranslated. I reused code I wrote in VB6 years ago upgrading it to .NET Framework because I didn't have the time to port it under Linux; the software reads xml files (with words, grammar rules, fonts for each known language, archaic to modern - a xml file for each language) and it should compare everything with manuscript words, fonts to grammar rules to break the ms. code and "decipher" it, revealing letter shapes, grammar rules etc... and, finally, translating it. To try to date it we use astronomical softwares searching eclipses and planets positions like some found in some images on the manuscript itself. Sure, now, after porting to .NET I could try if it works using Mono and this is the next step, anyway first I would like to see it working under M$ to be sure there are no issues left. > That sort of sucks to have the extra cp.
