How to install the Computing Dictionary

The "Komputika Leksikono" is a hypertext in HTML except that its basic character set is ISO-8859-3 (Latina-3). At the time of this writing it consists of 82+59 files, located in two directories.

You may copy to your local computer the directorykompleksand its subdirectory kompleks/bildoj, preserving the hierarchy and the name of the subdirectory. This should enable you to read the lexicon offline. (You may prefer to download 2 zipped files, kompleks.zip and bildoj.zip.)

The lexicone relies on two fonts in Latin-3, one proportional and one monospaced. Depending on your platform and browser you might try one of the following:

under Unix: one can use Latina-3 en X (XMosaic, Netscape ...): ftp.stack.urc.tue.nl/pub/esperanto/fonts.dir/adobe3.tar.gz ftp://ftp.stack.urc.tue.nl/pub/esperanto/fonts.dir/l3-tiparoj.tar.Z The first package contains proportional fonts, the second, monospaced.
for Macintosh: full type families with the Esperanto letters encoded according to Latin-3 are available online at http://www.crl.com:80/~pwhull/efonts.html;
besides, M. Urban has made two screen fonts available via
ELNA, Esperanto League of North America, Box 1129, El Cerrito, CA 94530, 415 653--0998;
under MS-DOS: one can use programs for EGA, VGA: ftp://ftp.stack.urc.tue.nl/pub/esperanto/fonts.dir/iloj.zip. and a browser like doslynx or minuet.
under MS-Windows: there are a few TrueType fonts, available at ftp://ftp.stack.urc.tue.nl/pub/esperanto/fonts.dir/lat3pttf.zip.

Actually the Leksikono needs only those characters of Latin-3 which are also available in Latin-1 plus the accented Esperanto letters; i.e. one can use an ANSI character set modified so that it has the accented Esperanto characters in the positions defined for them in Latin-1. Such fonts can be downloaded from the FEL WWW-site.

If you cannot install Latin-3 fonts, you may replace the codes of the accented Esperanto characters according to the "cx-convention":

    16ume 8ume  10ume Substitutes
     c6   306    198  Cx au ^C
     e6   346    230  cx    ^c
     d8   330    216  Gx    ^G
     f8   370    248  gx    ^g
     a6   246    166  Hx    ^H
     b6   266    182  hx    ^h
     ac   254    172  Jx    ^J
     bc   274    188  jx    ^j
     de   336    222  Sx    ^S
     fe   376    254  sx    ^s
     dd   335    221  Ux    ^U
     fd   375    253  ux    ^u

and use the standard ANSI character set.

Here is a test to check the rendering of the accented letters on your screen.
