General coding documentation for
Merriam-Webster's Medical Desk Dictionary
including M-W font addresses
****************************
All field tags are enclosed in angle brackets;
<...> is opening field tag; is closing tag
Field tags enclose information that may be converted
to bold, italic, new paragraph, etc., depending
on the presentation requirements
e.g.:
... = boldface main entry word
****************************
All special character coding is enclosed in curly braces;
e.g.:
{aacute} = letter a with acute accent
{deg} = temperature degree symbol
{ldquo} = left double quote mark
***************************
Special characters and accented letters are marked
using SGML mnemonics where possible and following the
pattern of SGML entities -- the mnemonics
are here enclosed inside curly braces {...} rather than
inside SGML entity delimiters (&...;) for ease of reading

there will be one or more fields before the first field,
and the first field (and succeeding ones) will generate

******************************************
General field codes
NOTES for printing or display of data:
COMMA RULE
if two fields which print italic come together,
such as ... ...
or ... ...
they must be separated by generated comma (+ space),
if two fields which print small caps come together,
such as ... ...
or ... ...
or ... ...
they must be separated by a generated comma (+ space)
Comma and space also required between and fields and between and : there should be a comma and a space before the field. If the or field
immediately precedes the field, the comma should be boldface. However, if lightface text (such as that in a field) immediately
precedes the field, the comma should be lightface.
Comma and space also required between certain subfields:
if the following subfields come together,
... ...
... ...
they must be separated by a generated comma (+ space)
NOTE for printing or display of data:
EM DASH RULE
if two or more fields that normally generate
an opening lightface em dash come together in the field,
(e.g., , , ) they must be SEPARATED by a
generated semicolon (+ space) instead of
generating new em dashes after the first.
For example:
usu. used... called also... compare...
would be:
-- usu. used... ; called also ... ; compare ...
or
usu. used ... usu. considered ...
would be:
-- usu. used ... ; usu. considered ...
NOTE for printing or display of data:
SEMICOLON RULE
When two fields come together, they must be separated
by a generated semicolon (+ space); semicolon to match preceding
font weight: bold after boldface, otherwise lightface
NOTE for printing or display of data:
RULE
Whenever a field occurs, it must be separated
from the preceding field by a comma (+ space),
boldface if following boldface text, otherwise lightface
NOTE for printing or display of data:
SPACE RULE
Before a field there needs to be a fixed space in addition to
the space band that precedes the or tag. (The space
between the field and the {bc} that follows it should be just
a single space band.)

Special character codes
These are modeled on SGML convention
but here are marked with {...} rather than the
&...; of SGML. A simple search and replace can
change them to SGML entities, since there is no
literal use in the file of curly braces or the ampersand
Greek characters are shown at the end
Here reference is made to the character position
in the Merriam-Webster font(s) MW_FONT ....:
r.... stands for regular
x.... stands for extended
i.... stands for IPA
The four digit number is the decimal position within the font:
(refer to the font map).
Thus,
r0036 is decimal position 36 in the regular set
-- the number sign/hash mark
r0130 is decimal position 130 in the regular set
-- the high stress mark
x0137 is decimal position 137 in the extended set
-- the copyright symbol
i0214 is decimal postion 214 in the IPA set
