Diego,

Thanks for the perl derived EAD tree.=20

With respect to the Formal Public Identifier for ISO Added Latin 1, both
"ISO 8879-1986//ENTITIES Added Latin 1//EN" and "ISO 8879:1986//ENTITIES
Added Latin 1//EN" are standard forms of the indentifier. Many SGML
programs provide catalog entries for both forms. If you happen to have a
program that does not, then you can add the form of the identifier as it
appears in eadchars.ent to the programs catalog, mapped to the appropriate
file. For example, AdeptEdit comes with the following two entries in its
default catalog:

PUBLIC "ISO 8879-1986//ENTITIES Added Latin 1//EN"=
 "../entities/iso-lat1.gml"
PUBLIC "ISO 8879:1986//ENTITIES Added Latin 1//EN"=
 "../entities/iso-lat1.gml"

Note that they both map to the same file.=20

You should avoid altering the entry in eadchars.ent to fit your software,
as eadchars.ent is considered EAD's standard.
