Someone has done this already, and like all good things on Internet, it's free. (No it's not Windows NT.) Worldwide Web (WWW) is an SGML Intenet-wide distributed hypertext system, interfaces to Gopher (and I think also to WAIS) are already existing. For more information you might want to ftp to info.cern.ch and have a look on the files in /pub/www, especially the postscript docs there. >Alternatively, you might think of mounting it as part of the LABYRINTH >online web for Medievalists.

Just put it on a server and someone will turn it into hypertext, www, gopher, wais and you-name-it :)) +gg -- Gerhard Gonter + CC/Univ.
