Subject: Genealogy Software
An excellent source of information on genealogy software
for all widely used machines is the FAQ (Frequently Asked
Questions) file from the ROOTS-L@NDSUVM1.bitnet (or
@VM1.NODAK.EDU on the Internet). This ListServer offers
lots of other valuable items for genealogical research,
and the list itself is very active.
Probably the most widely used DOS program is PAF
(Personal Ancestral File) from the Church of the Latter-day
Saints, 50 East North Temple St., Salt Lake City UT 84150.
The program costs about $35, is well supported and quite
bug-free, and its files can be ported to many other
genealogical programs (and vice versa, GEDCOM format).
PAF is also available for the Mac. And there are lots of
other alternatives, ranging from freeware to about $300.

Subject: Hypercard Shakespeare at Stanford
Matthew Wall requested information about a Hypercard-based Shakespeare at
Stanford. In the late 80s, Larry Friedlander of Stanford's English
Department created a group of multimedia tools for teaching Shakespeare,
known collectively as "The Shakespeare Project." The following references
