Thanks! I managed to find the Aristophanes one, but couldn't find any books at all by Euripides, nor any books with that latter title (by any author).

In any case, looking at the former title (Aristophanes), I'm not sure the format of that one would work as well for Shakespeare, since it's written more like prose, rather than how Shakespeare's stuff needs to be typeset more like poetry.

Thanks for the suggestion(s), though!

[edit] PS. I do see there's some Shakespeare ebooks there for download -- those were nice to peruse, and see the ideas those various creators came up with re formatting.
