Nathaniel Thomas (1730 after 1768) was a Welsh writer and editor.

Life

Thomas, from Glamorgan in south Wales, studied at Jesus College, Oxford, matriculating there in 1747; the university records do not note the award of a degree but later biographers said that he had a Bachelor of Arts degree. He was the editor and proprietor of the St James's Chronicle in London, and edited an abridged version of Robert Ainsworth's Latin Dictionary (1758). In 1761, he published a corrected edition of the dictionary and in 1768 published an edition of works by Eutropius, together with a translation and notes.[1]

gollark: Basically:- messaging between computers within CC (via modems) is easy- adding security to that is hard- for messaging between servers, you need to use an HTTP server of some sort to relay messages- you can program one yourself or use an existing service- programming one yourself allows you to handle stuff like user accounts on the server, making security easier
gollark: ... do you want me to simplify my explanations, or something?
gollark: Plus, you can't get discussion between multiple people like this.
