Thank you. However, assuming this was in the spices-mixes-msg file, I 
went looking there and could find "Pichon" but not "Picon", to correct. 
I will add your message and clarification to this file. I am however, 
unfortunately, seeing a number of dropped characters from this list. 
Luckily they are usually easy to guess. I think this may be because of 
my switching to a  high speed connection from dial up. Perhaps this is 
the cause of this problem here.

> Taillevent.  Le Viandier.  Published as L Viandier de Guillaume
> Tirel dit Taillevent edited by J. Pichon and G. Vicaire 1892.  Second
> edition 1893.  Third edition edited by S. Martinet.  Slatkine
> Reprints.  Geneva.  1967.

At one time the SCA-Librarians mail list had taken on the project of 
filling out the various partial biblographic references that can be 
found in the Florilegium, but alas nothing ever happened of that 
project.

(Who is trying to rewrite my Florilegium programs and has found out 
that most of the Python libraries I was using to access the Mac OS are 
now defunct and someone gave a might shake of the Mac OS and really 
complicated the replacement routines. And didn't leave me any examples. 
Anybody used Python to handle files under Mac OS X? :-) )
