********************* Software Announcement ********************

     The following VISCII-compliant software packages are now 
available for anonymous ftp from the Monash and SIMTEL20 
archives, as well as all of SIMTEL20's mirror sites worldwide.  

==============================================================

VDOS421.ZIP     VIETDOS: Vietnamese keyboard and screen filters 

     VIETDOS ver. 4.21 is a TSR utility which intercepts the 
keyboard, translates and stores the user's input in VISCII (a 
code standard for Vietnamese).  It also acts as a screen filter 
to display back the VISCII codes as Vietnamese characters on an 
EGA or VGA screen.  

     This program allows the user to use most existing DOS
applications (for example, WordPerfect, MS-Word, Quattro-Pro,
Turbo C++, etc.) in Vietnamese.  In addition, file and directory 
names can also be displayed in Vietnamese.

     This is a free program from the TriChlor group.  Questions 
should be directed to "bui@berlioz.nsc.com".

--------------------------

WINVNK10        Vietnamese keyboard and fonts for Windows 3.1

     WINVNKEY ver. 1.0 allows Vietnamese to be used in most 
Windows 3.1 programs (for example, NotePad, Write, MS Word for 
Windows, PageMaker, Excel, etc.).  It translates keyboard input 
into VISCII characters for storage, display and printing.  Four 
Vietnamese VISCII-compliant TrueType fonts are supplied.

     This is a free program from the TriChlor group.  Questions 
should be directed to "cuong@haydn.stanford.edu".

---------------------------

BTVIET03.ZIP    Vietnamese editor--most graphics cards + mouse

     BUTVIET 0.3 is a preliminary (but working) version of a 
multi-screen Vietnamese word processor which supports Hercules, 
CGA, EGA, VGA, MCGA and ATT400 graphics cards.  It also has mouse 
support.  Text is stored in VISCII format.

     Questions should be directed to "vuong@saigon.com".

---------------------------

VLASER2.ZIP     Multi-font Laserjet printing for Vietnamese

     This is a menu-driven program which prints Vietnamese VISCII 
files on Laserjets or compatible laser printers.  Very flexible 
formatting is allowed, and formatting choices are stored and 
recalled automatically.  Four Vietnamese Laserjet fonts are 
included.  

	The program is free.  Questions should be directed to 
"nguyenh@nosc.mil". 

--------------------------- 

VPRINT12.ZIP    Printing utility for Vietnamese VISCII files

     VPRINT 1.2 is a utility to print Vietnamese VISCII files on 
Epson LX, LQ, IBM PRO dot-matrix printers and HP Laserjets.  

	The program is free.  Questions about this program should 
be directed to "vuong@saigon.com". 

---------------------------

THITAP1.ZIP     Poems by Quang Dung, uses VN TrueType fonts
THITAP2.ZIP     Poems by Nguyen Binh, uses VN TrueType fonts

     These are collections of poems by the Vietnamese poets 
Quang Du~ng (1921-1989) and Nguye^~n Bi'nh (1919-1966), 
implemented in a Windows 3.1 menu system.  It uses Vietnamese 
VISCII TrueType fonts which comes with the WINVNKEY program.  
WINVNKEY does not need to be active, but must have been installed 
on your computer (WINVNKEY automatically installs the required 
VISCII fonts when it is installed).  

     This utility is free.  Questions should be directed to 
"bui@berlioz.nsc.com".

-------------------------

NHAC1-A3.ZIP    Vietnamese Songs, hypertext style, Vol1-VerA3
NHAC2-A3.ZIP    Vietnamese Songs, hypertext style, Vol2-VerA3

NHAC4-A3.ZIP    Vietnamese Songs, hypertext style, Vol4-VerA3
THO1-A3.ZIP     Vietnamese Old Poems, hypertext style, Vol1

     These are collections of 200 Vietnamese songs, plus 59 poems
by Xua^n Die^.u, displayed in full Vietnamese on screen in 
hypertext style, for MSDOS with EGA/VGA display.  Songs can be 
retrieved, viewed, and  stored to disk as VISCII text to be 
printed using VPRINT, VIETDM or VLASER2, or edited with any 
VISCII-compliant editor, such as BUTVIET.

     Questions about these collections should be sent to 
"hho@usc.edu".

---------------------------

VISC11PS.ZIP    VISCII and VIQR 1.1 standards, in PostScript 

     This is a collection of PostScript document files describing 
the Vietnamese Character Encoding standards, VISCII and VIQR.  

     VISCII (VIetnamese Standard Code for Information 
Interchange) is an 8-bit superset of ASCII, allowing full 
encoding of Vietnamese in precomposed form.  VISCII has been 
designed for maximum compatibility with existing MS-DOS, MS 
Windows, Unix and X-Windows software, allowing Vietnamese to be 
used with most existing software packages. 

     VIQR (VIetnamese Quoted-Readable) is a 7-bit visual encoding 
scheme which allows Vietnamese to be transmitted over 7-bit 
electronic networks and mail channels, as well as to be readable 
on ASCII terminals.

     Questions about these standards should be directed to the 
Viet-Std working group (Viet-Std@haydn.stanford.edu), 
1212 Somerset Drive, San Jose, CA 95132, USA.
