Gee. And all *I* did was retype the whole thing into my word
processor by hand using Lawrence's font for the pIqaD, a font I
built in Fontographer for the romanized text and another for
all the English. I annotated all the differences between the
E-K and K-E sections, added in all the words from the appendix
and all other sources I can find and noted the sources in the
definitions. I started catagorizing all the canon so I could
look up every use of {-laH} or every {law'/puS}, etc, but ran
out of steam.
Now, I've gotten distracted by fiber optics versions of models
of 1701D, Voyager and a Klingon Bird of Prey. I figure I can
make disruptor marks on the Enterprise...
But maybe I can get back to categorizing canon. I have typed
most of it into word processing documents so I can do string
searches, if nothing else.
