nb4latex – Convert NotaBene4 to LaTeX
A program to convert old (MS-DOS) NotaBene4 (including ancient Greek and all the symbols of logic) files to LaTeX format. With this conversion program and its utilities, you can use NotaBene for editing (seeing all the accents, the Greek chars, etc.) and, at the very final stage of document preparation, convert it to LaTeX.
The present version of the program is implemented for MS-DOS; the README discusses what might be necessary to update the program.
