Re: Creating a New Book List

["Alfred Kraemer" <akraemer@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Our html accessions list is also produced with a Perl script which formats
the III review file output. Within the perl script diacritics are
'translated' to the appropriate html code. This is pretty simple but -as far
as I know- it has to be done for every diacrital character: e.g.

s/\{226\}A/Á/g;
s/\{226\}a/á/g;

(The string between the first and the second forward slash is replaced with
the string between the second and the third forward slash)
When we started using the perl script we noticed some diacritics we had not
included initially. Those have been added since.

After 'enhancing' the web version of our accessions list we also use it to
satisfy the limited demand for print accessions lists.
