Latest job has been a veterinary 'encyclopaedia' of all medicines made by the biggest manufacturers in The Netherlands. To make matters more interesting, a CD had to be produced with the same content, only in an easily viewable and searchable format. I chose to make a website, using ICE, the well known Perl search engine, for easy searching through the contents.
Tools used in the entire process: Word and Excel, as most manuscripts were produced that way, WordPerfect 5.1 for DOS to do the real work of editing, sorting and tagging in, Ventura 4.2 to do the lay-out and indexing, Acrobat to produce the files for typesetting, HTMLpp to translate the WP files into HTML pages, ICE to index the stuff, Xitami to serve the pages, Netscape to view them, Textpad to finetune little things, Easy CD creator to make the CD.
Come to think of it, I could have done all this in OS/2, using Word, Excel, WP 5.1, Ventura 4.2, Ghostscript, HTMLpp, ICE, Xitami, Netscape, Warp's own editor and Unite CD-maker.
And on another note, the book before was on making Tiffany-style windows, a full color book introducing me to the utterly mystifying wordl of color correction. Definitely not a thing to be underestimated. This is possibly out of reach for OS/2 programs, but I'm not quite sure.
