Diccionario is a self explaining app to translate words to and from several languages.
The covered languages are English, German, Portuguese, French, Spanish, Catalonian and Italian.

To use the program, start TRADMAC and select a language from the pile of books.
Type in the word to translate and select the target language at the right.
You will note that below your translation word, a list from the apps database is displayed.

Looking at the many PC files in the apps folder, one might guess that the program was made for Windows originally.

Project_Gutenberg_1994-iso.zip

The Project Gutenberg at its very humble beginnings as an online book repository of out of copyright books and papers.

This CD image contains perhaps the entire Project Catalog of the years 1990 to early 1994. What they term "ETexts" are plain text files in BBEdit TEXT format.

Perhaps also of interest are the good array of some very early archiving tools for dealing with files downloaded from the BBS systems of the day ("Mac Utils" folder).

Visit: The Project Gutenberg, in its present day form.

Compatibility: 

Hybrid Mac and DOS CD.

The DOS side has a simple text reader for browsing the content. The Mac side has an early version of BBEdit Lite to help read the texts. All of the "EText's" have BBEdit creator types.

Capitol Hill includes more than 45 minutes of video clips, and nearly 500 photos, plus narration and original music. It's Congress like you've never seen--or heard--it before. It's close-up Congressional debates, where you're face-to-face with the nation's most powerful people. It's cheering crowds and staunch supporters. It's hard talk and hard lessons. It's real life on The Hill.
