You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. is a list of the 366 Catholic patron saints of the day in Italian. The file main.txt = main.src has one saint per line. The file main.wds has one word per line; use only lines that begin with 'a '. The character '°' denotes abbreviation or truncation, as in "Sant°" The character '~' is hyphen. Both files are in Unicode UTF-8 encoding. You should download them; opening in the browser and copy-pasting the contents will not work.
This file is too terse; more succinct than what the VMS parags are likely to be. It would be better if there was a bit more information about each saint, like "martire" and "secolo XV" and what is its "specialty" (like, here in Brazil Santo Antônio is patron of marriages and the saint to pray to for help finding a misplaced or lost item.)
And I really should tell the story of Santo Expedito, but don't have the time now.
All the best, --stolfi
