medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture Many thanks for posting the exercises and toolkit. I did a few lines to test the program and was very pleased with how well it works. I will recommend it to the students in my paleogrpahy course next quarter. It will have the great advantage that I shall not have to correct all their exercises and they will have the practical experience of transcribing gothic cursive effectively. I hope others on the list also find the program so useful.
