These word lists do not contain 8-bit accented +characters or Unicode, as would be found in a more recent Project +Gutenberg eBook. Instead, the lists include phonetic spelling, +utilizing backslashes and other characters to indicate where accents +would normally occur. There is no detailed guide on how these extra +characters were used, and therefore it is likely infeasible to map from +the word lists back to a correct representation of the word (i.e., to +map from a word list entry with slashes or other characters, back to +the actual non-English word with accents or other non-ASCII characters). + +These lists may still be useful, but they are no longer the +state-of-the-art in word lists. In the time since the lists were +created, it has become much easier for anyone with interests to make +their own lists of unique words from the Project Gutenberg collection +or other sources. + + +Moby (tm) Language II for MSDOS operating systems is compressed +and distributed as a single zip file.
