All the files offered in this section are located on my server and have undergone a virus check.

Any use of them is at your own risk.
I don't charge you, and you don't charge me.
Microsoft Word 5.x software
Diacritic signs without installing new fonts
If you work in MS Word v4-5.x and you don't want to install many fonts for covering your needs for Latin letters with diacritics, you might benefit from this Word document that lists letters with diacritics encoded, originally written by the Norwegian balkanist Vemund Aarbakke in 1994 (maybe earlier). It displays characters with diacritic signs in Bulgarian, Macedonian, Rumanisn, Slovenian, Turkish, Vukovian (Serbo-Croatian).
Restrictions
Documents written with these diacritics cannot be displayed or
printed correctly in other word processors, including later
versions of MS Word, i.e., version 6 and later. This also goes for
HTML.

EndNote software
IS ResearchSoft (later bought by Thomson Reuters) has made an excellent piece of software called EndNote Plus for producing references and bibliographies in academic writing. Their EndNote Plus version 1-4 worked well in Microsoft Word version 5.1a by adding a plug-in to the Word Commands folder, thus enabling complete functionality as if you had opened the application itself. Later versions of EndNote Plus pay no respect this "dinosaur" and discontinue the support of pre-MS Word 6 versions, including the 5.1a plug-in.
Styles for EndNote exported XML files (EndNote 8+)
Since 2007, most documents I've written were uploaded to the web right away. As I don't know of any free EndNote viewers, I've felt compelled to use the export to XML feature that EndNote has been offering since at least version 8. To view the XML biographies, I've written some XSL stylesheets that comply with different standards. Find them here.
Styles for Mac OS Classic / System 7-9
If you have EndNote on your Macintosh running Classic operating systems, you may add the following items:
EndNote Prefs (drop it onto your Preferences folder) (1.6 KB).
