 The BMCR archives comprise several hundred `article' files, each with 
a serial number file name of less than eight characters, consisting
of numerals and hyphens.  Each designates the volume, issue, and
number of the contents:  so 3-4-6 is the sixth item in the fourth
issue of volume 3.  (Vol. 1, 1990; vol. 2, 1991; vol. 3, 1992.)  The
individual article files are organized in `volume' directories, so 
for example, 3-4-6 and all other Vol. 1 articles are in v3.  In
addition the file INDEX contains a current list of all files in
serial number order, identifying author and title of book reviewed
and author of review.  

To subscribe to the BMCR or BMMR Listserv, send the following message to
LISTSERV@CC.BRYNMAWR.EDU:

  SUB BMCR-L Your Name
  SUB BMMR-L Your Name or
  SUB BMR-L Your Name for both without duplications.


 Articles are available via anonymous ftp, WAIS, and gopher.  For anonymous
ftp, ftp to
        ftp.lib.Virginia.EDU
and log in as anonymous.  You will be prompted for a password; please
use your full e-mail address (e.g., jpw@virginia.edu).  The INDEX
file is available as:
        /pub/alpha/bmcr/index
Individual articles are found in volume directories, such as:
        /pub/alpha/bmcr/v1
For WAIS, please direct WAIS clients to orion.lib.Virginia.EDU (port 210).
The "source" file is bmcr.src.  Users of the gopher client software will
find the journal and associated indexes at gopher.lib.Virginia.EDU
as well, with the standard gopher port 70, in the "Journals" area,
and within that, the "Bryn Mawr Classical Review" section.

CHARACTER SETS
Inquiries suggest it is not out of place to post the transliteration scheme
BMCR uses for Greek.  This is an unofficial knock-off of TLG Beta code (no
one could supply me with an accurate set of rules to follow, so I inferred
them) and comments, corrections, and suggestions are welcome.  A
precisianist would call this "TLG Beta (O'D.)" I suppose.

A    alpha             C        xi            Diacritical marks
B    beta              O        omicron       appear after the
D    gamma             P        pi            vowel, breathing
G    delta             R        rho           first, then accent,
E    episilon          S        sigma         then subscript
Z    zeta              T        tau
H    eta               U        upsilon       )  smooth breathing
Q    theta             F        phi           (  rough breathing
I    iota              X        chi           /  acute accent
K    kappa             Y        psi           =  circumflex
L    lambda            W        omega         \  grave accent
M    mu                                       +  diaeresis
N    nu                                       |  iota subscript

An asterisk (*) indicates that the following letter is to be capitalized.
Punctuation is a problem, but instinct usually serves; so : has to make do
for raised stop, but ; is available for questions, etc.
