By cross-checking I mean using #84 to polish #41445, not the other way
round; I agree #84 is, as Don puts it, unassailable. I haven't done any
work on #41445 yet beyond wrapping the submitted utf-8 file using P3 as
a template. I really just wanted to harvest this particularly low
hanging and tasty fruit before it disappeared from DP, and I want to get
it into the #41445 fileset to make sure #41445 does not itself become
unassailable.

The viewer was just a 10 minute hack so Greg could see what files I was
wanting to upload. I'm not for one second proposing that PG uses it! A
scan versus "line synched text" viewer would be a very nice thing to
have at PG -- it would certainly save a lot of time hunting for errata
references -- but kind of a lot would have to happen before that could
become even a vague possibility.

Thanks Greg. I'll email Al and see what he wants to do.
