ANST-Announce - Stefan's files for July

[Mark.S Harris]

Greetings,

Here is a copy of my Florilegium article for July.

I am always looking for additional articles if anyone has written any that
you think would be of interest to others in the Known World.

If any newsletter editors would like to get a copy of this monthly article
for their newsletter at the beginning of the month instead of the end, just
let me know and send me your name, email address, group name and newsletter
name.

If you have any suggestions, complaints or comments about the Florilegium,
please let me know. I will be at Pennsic this year if anyone wants to speak
to me in person.

Thanks.
   Stefan

A Blending of the Past and Present       

Over the past nine years in an ongoing effort, I have been collecting bits of 
useful information from various newsgroups, mail lists and articles submitted 
to me by their authors. In order to make this information available to others, 
I have placed this information in a series of files I call Stefan’s Florilegium.

The Florilegium website now has new front door site. This site is at:
http://lg_photo.home.texas.net/florilegium/index.html

While most of the files will still reside at the old address and the index
files there will still work for a while, the newest files and the latest 
updated files and index files will be at the new site.

Files that are new or have been updated are indicated by a special marker
in the filelists at the website. In addition, the file -updated-files is
a listing of these files in chorological order.

A copy of my complete filelist is available in most sections of the website. 
This filelist or any of my files is also available from me by email in either 
Word 6.0 or text formats.
