Re: : An Example in Senyecan

Hi!  Thanks for that help.  When I return on Friday I'll experiment
with it.

Actually I do not post.  When I post I am instructed to mail to
conlangs@egroups.com, with no choice.  When I do that, my message is
always returned to me as undeliverable.  So I forward my message.
Then I can change the address to conlang@listserv.brown.edu.  And I
just delete any message that is not pertinent.  I'm sure this sounds
weird to many of you, but I don't know what else to do.

On that first attempt, the preview was perfect, but when I read the
message after its being posted, it didn't look good.  I'm sorry to
confuse folks.  I guess I'll learn the idiosyncracies in time.  Odd
that this is only a problem for me in the conlang group.

Switch fonts?  Is that done on my computer?  I haven't yet discovered
a way to do that in the conlang group.

Y'all have a good week.

Charlie
