Display and Searching Greek in the PLD

Display of Greek

Greek characters in the PL are entered as "character entity references" (see below), e.g., &lgr; for

. When text from the PL is displayed, these characters are automatically matched to images of the characters. We are grateful to James Tauber for make available the GreekGIF resources to make this possible.

Searching Greek in the PLD -- Under Development

The HTI will try to implement a system by which users of the Patrologia need only type a single character or character and accent to search the Greek. Until we are able to create such a capability, the Greek characters in the PL may be searched by typing the following "character entity references" (i.e., the strings beginning with "&" and ending with ";") to find Greek. For example, typing:

&lgr;&ogr;&ggr;&ogr;&sgr;

will retrieve portions of text containing:

Searches do not distinguish between upper and lower case.
