Dear Listmembers,
I'd be interested to get feedback from anyone who has had experience using text editing programs in producing an edition of a medieval (or other) text, esp. those that survive in many manuscripts--from programs that simply set up an apparatus of variant readings as footnotes to those that collate variant texts and do stemmatic analysis. I am aware that such programs exist, but what I would like to get is comments from people who have actually used them--what these programs can do, how hard they are for non-computer specialists to use, whether they save time in the long run, whether they are worth what they cost, etc.
