Automatic translator are FAR to produce sensible output.

The easiest way I've found is reading an english paper and speaking in
yuor language in a microphone with a speech recognision system.
The result is not so good, you need to revise it anyway, but it's the better
and quicker method I've found.
Once you're used to it, you need very little revision work.

Ciao

I realize you are waiting up to the weekend, so I wanted to get my voice out before then.  I'd love to help in any capacity I can, perhaps you'll come up with a positions to fill roster and I could fall into something =)

Bottom right is fine with me, someone start writing tips...

Alix Pexton...

Ok, but how should I present them? In a text file which is read by some CGI script or something? Anyway I'll see what I can do.

We'll get some formatting standards up in the near future, but for now just make it a text file.

I just punched something up in a few minutes (it's less then a page), just to get the brains rolling. I'll add some more when I get some more ideas. And if anyone else has some ideas I'll add them to the list (name included). <H1> Represents headers/Titles and <I> is for the author. I'm sure people can think of much better ones, and I tried to be as broad as I could.


I'd like some really advanced stuff in there as well as very basic.

There was a minor mistake in the last one which I just fix. There are probably other errors. As I said I just did it real quickly because I don't have much time at the moment.

Actually, I should have really tested the code ;)

Next time I post I'll start a new thread.

I like it!
I think tips like these are both helpful and give newbies like me
a gentle look at some of the special features of D. Can't wait
to see what the D Journal turns into! Maybe a bit late in the
game, but I would love to help in any capacity I can, if there
is anything you need help with!
-Jon

So long as you drop me a line (editor@thedjournal.com), preferably with a very succinct resume (just your languages / experience level, and any writing experience, if any) and your preferred capacity, I'm sure we'll be able to make use of you.

Thanks for offering

:)

Matthew
