Your replies, both on the list and personal, gave me a lot to think about. I haven't been contacted by the author of the sociology book yet, and don't know if I will be, but at least I have a more concrete idea of how to respond to his questions. jennifer //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// Jennifer Friedman School of Library and Information Studies 415 W.

IXgen is a suite of power indexing and marker-management utilities, including: o Marker Expand/Collapse -- expand markers into the main text flow so that markers can be created or edited in context. When done, collapse the marker text back into markers. o Generate Editable Marker List/Apply Edited Marker List -- generate a sorted list of markers. Make marker edits in the context of a sorted list. When done, reflect those changes back to the source markers. Make all your marker updates in one central place without moving among the various source files. o Markers from Tags -- build new markers from the paratext of selected tags. o Permute Markers -- permute existing markers into new markers o Capitalization -- specify capitalization rules for each level of an index entry. IXgen will adjust marker capitalization as needed. o Markers from Keywords -- make up a list of key words. IXgen will look for matches in the source file(s) and insert a new marker where a match is found. Accept/reject matches interactively or run in batch mode. IXgen works on any marker type, not just index markers. IXgen doubles as a full-featured marker manager, not just an indexing tool. You can apply IXgen activity to just a highlighted area, an entire file, or an entire book. Use one or more IXgen tools, in any sequence, at any time. IXgen is primarily a new interface to the marker system. Nothing new is added to the structure or format of the document file. Thus, documents processed by IXgen remain fully compatible with FrameMaker where IXgen is not installed. For more detailed information on IXgen or any of our other tools for FrameMaker, please contact: Frank Stearns Associates franks@fsatools.com Toll free in USA: 800/567-6421 Outside USA: 206/892-3970 Fax: 206/253-1498 IXgen is a fully supported and documented product. ========================================================================= Date: Mon, 5 Dec 1994 16:30:50 ECT Reply-To: Indexer's Discussion Group Sender: Indexer's Discussion Group From: Raya Fidel Subject: SIGIR'95 -- A Reminder ----------------------------Original message---------------------------- *** REMINDER *** CALL FOR PAPERS SIGIR'95 There is still time to submit a paper---or a proposal for a poster, tutorial, demonstration, or workshop---for SIGIR '95.
