Well, I think Stephen King is pretty much overrated-  he seems to truly have
run out of anything interesting to say years ago.  Right now, I think he's
responsible for killing more trees than MacDonald's.  Frankly, I wish his
editor(s) would have the guts to stand up to him and say "Steve- we really
don't need another 1500 page novel this year- could you trim it a bit to a
reasonable length?"

Anyway, some authors that I would like to see discussed are: Skipp and Spector
(I noticed some discussion starting), David Schow, Richard Christian
Matheson, Joe R. Lansdale, Dean Koontz and Ramsay Campbell.  Can we leave
King alone for awhile and talk about other authors?

The prominent character in the Earthsea trilogy was Ged, or Sparrowhawk,
and was male, not female.  There is an important female character in
the second book (The Tomb of Atuan) but I don't remember her name.

	It depends on whether he's involved with the filming or not.
	He certainly wasn't involved in derivative junk like "Children
	of the Corn" or "Lawnmower Man."

	By the way, the "Sleepwalkers" cameo is probably the best reason
	to see that film -- King makes an appearance, as does Clive Barker
	and Tobe Hooper.

If you refer to NYT Book Review 21 Jun 1992, the answer is "yesnomaybe."

Yes, this is interactive written material.  Some is on-line in the sense
of being distributed over networks and multiple sites, some runs
remotely from servers, and some is on-line in the sense of on your
machine (the sense apparently used in the NYT article).

No, this is not literature *yet*.  Most people in alt.hypertext seem to
be talking about interactive manuals and help files of various kinds. 
Of course there's lots of talk about the hypertext engines available to
create these hypertexts. 

Maybe this is the same universe of discussion.  But if so, we all see
very different chunks of it.  For example, 75% of the text in Robert
Coover's sidebar (_Finding Your Way in Hypertext: A Guide to the
Software_) described materials new to me.  But I could write an equal
amount about materials not mentioned there.  

Many people see aspects of hypertext that they want to use, develop, and
promote for differing audiences.  The NYT article covered book-like uses
stressing fiction.  Others see book-like uses stressing other forms of
writing and other applications (reference or training) as well as
non-book applications.  Some people are working on remote single-site
interactions, and others are working on multiple-site interactions. 

Others work on the content, the structure of the content, the property
issues of content and incorporation of references, or seek the proper
way to keep readers from feeling lost.  

All these discussions take place with only tiny overlaps.  How ironic
that the discussion of the rules of connectedness remains unconnected.

biocomputing package, and recently for an internet browser of biological

Seems as if the gopher and the wais interface in the telnet version
I tried relies on executing an external call to gopher or swais 
rather than being built-into Lynx.  Our modified version of the
Hytelnet hypertext reader by Earl Fogel (unix port) is doing precisely
this ie the call to an external command.  
Do you think it useful to incorporate gopher or wais into
the Lynx code, or retain it as a separate client which Lynx can call.

Our version which is used for a biocomputing sequence analysis package

My colleague Derek Kiong who modified the Fogel code got permission
from Earl Fogel to distribute the modified hypertext browser together
with our database of documents.

The imminent release of Storyspace allows importing QuickTime movies
directly into the document. QuickTime is Apple's protocol for real-time
video and sound. It decompresses multiple PICT files on the fly and plays
them as frames to which an audio track is attached. The video can be as
involved or generic as you want, with a clarity loss at the more complex end
(which is to be expected).
 
Storyspace allows combining text, QuickTime, static PICTs and sounds all in
the same space (area). Links can be made from any of these items to anywhere
else in the hypertext structure.
 
The drawback inherrent in Quicktime is disk-space. A five minute movie with
real captured video and sound may take up to 60 ^?{okMB of disk space.
Storyspace tried to work around this problem by creating file-links. The
QuickTime movie is not included in the hypertext. The QuickTime player built
into Storyspace loads the movie from another place (which could very easily
be a CD ROM).

Storyspace is published by Eastgate Systems (800) 562-1638 
or (617) 924-9044

As far as original articles, most everyone quotes Ted Nelson's works and
as well as those of Vannevar Bush.  The best overall introduction to
hypertext is, my opinion, that of Jeff Conklin in the Sept. 87 issue of
IEEE Computer.  It has a nice overview of available software (of the time)
as well as a good historical perspective.  He also has a bibliography
which contains the other articles mentioned.

You may also want to get the books "The Society of Text," editied by Ed
Barret and "Hypermedia and Literary Studies" and "Hypertext: The
Convergence of Contemporary Critical Theory and Technology" both by
George P. Landow.  None of these texts deal with technical issues of
producing hypertext/hypermedia, but all of them deal -- quite well --
with the issues of building hypertext, reading hypertext, and the impact
of hypertext on pedagogy, reading, writing, etc.

Well, Hyperwriter isn't available by FTP, and it isn't free, but it does

The University of Kansas has developed a distributed unix (and others)
hypertext package, for use in its Campus Wide Information System (CWIS).
This package is simalar to WWW in fuction, and related to Hyperrez in
document design.  At this time there isn't an X windows version, but we're
working on it.  There will also be a MS-DOS, MAC, and VMS version available
in the future.  The hypertext reader, called Lynx, is also a nearly complete

..a friend of mine is looking for a hypertext package for DOS which
will let him put in his own linked text, and only let someone pull it
out via the links.  He wants to be able to isolate some text so that
the user can't see it, unless given access.

Either an executable that does this would be fine, or source for a
more generic hypertext package would be better.

Any FTP sites where this is available?

I'm interested in the analysis of implicit semantics in existing
Hypertext
systems (ie analysing the context, structure and "types" of links).

Does anyone know of a Hypertext system that is:
   *	free
   *	preferably Unix based
   *	available in a source form [ASCII even?]
   *	about a small, well-defined domain

and that has a "proper" set of links, ie not something like UNIX
on-line help
which generally just links to chapter headings.

If so, I'd be obliged if you could mail me about it.

Thanks

HHHHEEEELLLLPPPP!!!!

Is there anyone out there in that big world of ours that knows
of any hypertext implementations that use local tracking maps
apart from Intermedia and Neptune?

Also, any info on HyperPAD source code or anon. ftp sites would
be most appreciated!

My company is working on a Motif-based product, and I would like to know
if there are any systems out there for creating a hypertext help system
under Motif.  We would like to get a relatively simple facility that
would allow us to import ASCII text and make it into hypertext help.

We've looked at ANDREW, and it does not appear to meet our needs because
(1) It's not Motif, (2) It's way too big and complex for our relatively
modest requirements.

Of course, if there is something out there in the public domain (i.e. free)
that would be great.  We may also be willing to pay, if the product is right.

Any and all suggestions will be much appreciated!
