Retypesetting Aids to Pronunciation.

I have started retypesetting Aids to the Pronunciation of Irish.
All the relevant files can be found in the relevant folder:

More Books in my library...

I have uploaded two more image files:
1/ A careful scan of my copy of The Christian Bothers’ “Aids to the Pronunciation of Irish”, which you can find in the new folder alongside the copy from Archive.org.  The problem with Archive’s copy was missing pages, and limited quality of scan.  The folder can be found here: http://www.box.com/s/9p84oadd6bakfjd5rvvm
2/ also I have scanned my copy of Shán Ó Cuív’s “An Comhgar”. This is a complete set of 92 Irish lessons, but they are typed in Seanchló Arsa, and are not suitable for an English only learner without guidance.  This is NOT Teach-Yourself!  The file can be found here: http://www.box.com/s/48pez9ni66fkyvsoqdx8

Catilína: Adding the Simplified Spelling

Task completed apart from tidying up.
A by product of the process, due to cross comparison, as the LS text format was ajusted to mirror the traditional print, OCR errors were highlighted, and so, corrected.
The Catilína files are all in the directory:

Comments and observations will be greatly appreceated.
