SignWriting List June 7, 2001 Thank you, Jerry and Angus! You have been very helpful ;-) Yes...I have very fast, up-to-date Macintoshes now, and they are really fast...it takes my breath away at times. There is a danger in that, since I can be fooled into thinking other people experience what I experience...so I will make an effort to test everything on slower computers too...Thanks so much for the input. As you know, I want to place a true database in FileMaker on the web in time...so the web pages I am doing right now are just for the interim waiting period until we have that database posted. Should I add more signs to the web pages I have now? I could place several hundred signs online if people think they would use the dictionary on the web...and I could do that for several signed languages as well...
