This site contains informations about several arguments I am interested in, or I've been interested in, both as a professional and as an amateur. Notice: even if this version of the site is in English, many links or documents contained herein are in Italian, and often also the corresponding comments are.
Navigation is simple: just use the menu on the top of the pages . Next, usual links aside, I use the following symbols:
txt is always followed by a text which can be viewed (in a separate window) by clicking on it (usually a html or pdf file: many texts are also provided in the zipped dvi format, which ensures the same graphical quality as pdf but which is far more compact, even if you'll need a TeX system to read it);
src is always followed by a program or a zipped document which is possible to download by clicking on it;
img is always followed by the name of an image which can be viewed by clicking on it (images are also represented by thumbnails which, always by clicking, can be enlarged).
These pages are periodically updated, especially sections containing texts and images to download: hereinafter I list the last news:
