In addition to the Project Gutenberg site, one of the most complete sources of Kipling prose e-texts is at http://whitewolf.newcastle.edu.au/words/ This will be described in the March 2003 issue of the Kipling Journal. A good source of verse in additon to our own website, though not complete despite the claim, is http://www.poetryloverspage.com/poets/kipling/ I guess that I should come clean and admit that over the past few months, I have built up on my PC a searchable database of all the prose works that I have found on the web. The software indexes every word, and this has the advantage that I can search all works en bloc rather than one-by-one. If anyone else wants to try it, the sofware is free on the web as Treepad Lite at http://www.treepad.com/treepadfreeware/ Regarding a CD, I don't know what the legal position would be, but I would not like to risk distributing something like this, which can never be completely up to date. You should also be aware, the the e-text versions of things I have found to be frequently at variance (particularly punctuation marks, and US spelling of some texts) with those of the standard Macmillan editions. Some of this I think is due to the sources being the American editions, and others because people have used an American spellchecker after scanning in the texts.
