Hi Kevin,

It might be helpful to give at least one example of what
your friend wants to do with the .dxb file.

Hi,

I'm a programmer at Gallaudet University, and am helping a
blind friend who wants to massage a post-processed Duxbury
(.dxb) file by "injecting" markup after the fact.  Since I
haven't worked with Duxbury files since 1978, I'm a bit
rusty.  And I imagine they've changed a wee bit. (grin)
Also, the specifics of what he's trying to do are a bit
vague, but I imagine we'll get down and dirty with it as we
get further along.

I gather this is the list for deeper understanding of the
files and other technical details.

These days my OS of choice is Linux -- Ubuntu and Red Hat,
and my language of choice is Python.  (See the signature for
my editor of choice.)

Later all...
