\begin{document}

At this point the author is evaluating the usefulness for the
\abbr{GELLMU} Project of using \emph{Cascading Style Sheets
(\abbr{CSS})} to provide crude renderings of the \abbr{XML} version of
the project's \emph{article} document type.

One point involves the placement of verbatim text, such as an
\abbr{ASCII}\footnote{
\begin{verbatim}
                              ASCII CHART

                            0123456789ABCDEF

                     0
                     1
                     2       !"#$%&'()*+,-./
                     3      0123456789:;<=>?
                     4      @ABCDEFGHIJKLMNO
                     5      PQRSTUVWXYZ[\]^_
                     6      `abcdefghijklmno
                     7      pqrstuvwxyz{|}~
\end{verbatim}
} % end of the footnote
chart in a footnote.

Various versions of this document are available: \offerings{ftascii}

Note that the XML version is an instance of the \abbr{GELLMU}
\emph{article} document type, which means that \bold{from the
viewpoint of a web browser its vocabulary is completely unknown}.
It contains a link to a \abbr{CSS} style sheet that serves to provide
a crude screen formatting.

Note that \abbr{CSS} is presently rather
limited.  In particular, it does not provide a way to move a footnote
to the bottom, or, for that matter, to \quophrase{move} anything.

Note that there are no live anchors in the web rendering of the
\abbr{XML} version if only because
\begin{enumerate}
\item  \abbr{CSS} provides no way to do that.
\item  the project's \emph{article} document type presently does not
       use \abbr{XML}-level anchors.
\end{enumerate}

The \abbr{CSS} renditon of the \abbr{XML} version \quophrase{works} as
intended when viewed with \softw{Opera 6} on a \slnt{Win32} platform.
The author is not fully satisfied with the \abbr{CSS} handling of any
other web browser that he has tried to use.

The screen \abbr{PDF} formatter for \abbr{GELLMU} has not yet been
completed.  Screen \abbr{PDF} will have live anchors and in many
respects be similar to the experimental PP4/PDF formatter for \abbr{PDF}
incremental slides.  An example slideshow is available at
\display{
\urlanch{http://math.albany.edu:8000/math/pers/hammond/Presen/tug2001/}
\ ,}
and an anchor for the draft formatter will be found at the end of the
slide show.
