[OS X TeX] BBEdit LaTeX glossary; MacRoman vs. TeX

[Joseph Slater]

Gary and I are working on updating his site, and staying more up-to-date 
via a tag team approach. Some may have noticed this? Anyway, we have a 
long way to go, but if you send me updates, I'll post them.

I've also recently posted a page to which there are no links. I don't 
know if it's format/idea is good or not, but I'd appreciate any 
feedback. It's incomplete, and should ideally be a little more 
sophisticated (e.g. where do BBEdit tools like yours fit), but it's a 
start.

Gary and I are working on a new layout for the site. Well, we're trying 
to consider better ways to do the site, we're not really implementing 
anything just yet. It may be less of a news site than it used to be, but 
hopefully a better resource than it has been over the past year or so.
