[sci.virtual-worlds] Bibliography in bibtex Format IS Corrected

wamapi@overbeek.cs.mcgill.ca (Wanda PIERCE) (05/06/91)

        Sorry - I should have been a little more explicit.  
        I did indeed incorporate the corrections and 
        additions you sent me.  The file I made available
        for `ftp' uncompresses and untars into a directory
        containing the `.bib' files, a latex file to create
        the `.dvi' file, and a README file.  I include here
        the contents of the README file, which should make
        exactly what I did a little clearer.  

                                                   - Wanda      

        < contents of README file >===========================

        This directory contains a set of files to produce the 
        `sci.virtual-worlds' bibliography as a `.dvi' file.  
        (Steps to follow are included in the file `bib.tex'.)  

        Familiarity with the use of TeX/LaTeX/BibTeX' is assumed.  

        The files in this directory correspond to those available
        on milton.u.washington.edu, as follows:

                orig.bib        bibliography_original_10-90
                add1.bib        bibliography_additions1_11-90
                add2.bib        bibliography_additions2_11-90
                add3.bib        -

        `add3.bib' contains additions sent directly to me by Bob 
        Jacobson and submitted to him by David Sturman.  David's
        submission also included corrections which I have incor-
        porated into the `.bib' files in this directory.  

        As I stated in my posting, I have not been meticulous with
        either my classification or reading through the hard copy 
        for typos.  Where I noticed a piece of information missing, 
        I simply put a question mark.  My motivation was simply to 
        get myself a typeset hard copy to peruse over a glass of 
        wine in some cafe where my computer isn't.

        If I use tex/bibtex, etc., it will have to be on a Mac.  Can
anyone suggest an easy way to do so?  I guess I'm asking for an Idiot's 
Guide here--when I looked at one of the ftp sites for OzTeX, I found about
a zillion megs of files to be ftp'ed, downloaded, unstuffed, etc., and I
thought, eek you must be kidding.  I mean, I don't want to go into the
typesetting/dtp biz, I just want to read/print out some files.  So, is there
a (relatively) easy way of doing so?  (I'm posting this here because I
figure at least a few others are in the same position I am.)
