Hi, Thanks to those who recently helped me out with my query concerning Ancient Greek and OpenOffice. I have downloaded Thessalonica and installed it on Windows 2000 laptop (dell C810).
Can anybody who has used this program give me a small tip? Using OpenOffice and Thessalonica I cannot get the breathing marks and accents to actually lie over the text, only to one side. I am sure that I am doing something remarkably stupid :-) Certainly OpenOffice can now import Greek text complete with accents/breathing marks, change to font on this text easily but even on this text I cannot place a new breathing mark or accent over the text. Thanks to anyone who can help, Andrew Strong. PS I sent a similar email to the maker of the program (Thessalonica). -- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- This evening, as he sat silently in the velvet backed chair, his mind had turned to many subjects like a black craft, that though it steers through many waters has always beneath it a deathly image reflected among the waves. Philosophers and the poetry of Death - the meaning of the stars and the nature of these dreams that haunted him when in those chloral hours before the dawn the laudanum built for him within his skull a tallow-coloured world of ghastly beauty. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
