That's great. The Shakespeare stuff is at  http://www.indelv.com.  There you
can download an XML client. The download contains a few plays and has links
to loads more. But it seems the client is needed to view the links.

>From what I've seen, there are no stage directions other than enter, exit
and music.

I hope I can get a bit further help when the time comes.

Thanks Michael Rueger for the link.

Regards,
Gary
