Just now as i rose from the toilet and drew my shorts up from the floor, i did
not feel the firm, full stroke of pants on my legs.  A momentary
disillusionment.  My clothes have diminished in this way -- the expected change
of season has divined a necessity for bare knees.  This year, i am told, the
fragile air will continue to grow warmer, and our clothes will, accordingly,
continue to shrink, constricting our bodies and urging out our sweat, bile,
blood, semen; and finally the finer fluids.  In this house our three cats will
dip their tails into the runny palette of ourselves -- like eggs over easy --
and paint incredible landscapes.

    I believe that the next esthetic movement will be Nazi surf music. After
this, as many suspect, the center will not hold and we will find ourselves nod-
ding in agreement with Jerry lee Lewis' pungent observation to the effect that,
"I feel good. I'm living and breathing. And I've got a good lawyer."
    Don't you people have anything better to do? Do they have any Jack Daniels
at this bar?

    Hello? Hello? Is anybody there? I'm lost. I was lost once on upper Amster-
dam Av. in Manhatten at night. Like, wow, man! Talk about your cold canyons!
When does the next bus arrive? You guys are really intellectual. How did you
get to be like that? I guess anybody can join, huh? I burp with self-esteem.
I met a West African security guard at a nightclub. He said his name meant,
"gold mouth," the talker. Is that post-modern or what? This guy teaches Der-
didas, see, and he pulls back his gums and clenches his teeth when he laughs
raucously. He said he wants to kill someone, anyone. His woman said he knows
philosophy better than she does but that she knows life better than he does.
How about that? Who could have known? It just just goes to show you. It's al-
ways something. I heard Coltrane at The Village Gate, on Bleeker St., in The  
Village. The men's room had crazy angles and a pre-modern smell. As Traffic's
Stevie Winwood said in the fabled 60s, "But, jazz." Yeah, I can see it all now.
As Cream's Jack Bruce sang in the fabled 60s, "Passing the time, drinking red
wine." As Gorgias of Leontini said in the fabled 5th century B.C., "Here I stop.
A summary of a long speech is worth while when one is speaking to a jury of in-
feriors; but before the leaders of Greece it is uncalled-for, as is the exhort-
ation to pay attention or to remember what has been said." I think I'll have 
pastrami on an onion roll for lunch. Thanks for letting me hang around. It's
better than washing socks. But not as good as the fabled 60s.

Popularized by the Satuday Night Live skit and Paramount movie 
"Wayne's World".  SOme people point to its use on an album by 
Anthrax c. 1985 as its first popular use, but it was used before that
in a Bill Muray skit on SNL in 1979.  Less emphatic forms of the
terminal "not" have been found in Nero Wolfe and Fritz Leiber stories,
c. 1940-1955.  Heck, it's even in Shakespeare!

"I fear thee - NOT!"

in essence, postmodernism is absent in this way.  but there is also

To convert between GuoBiao and Big5 (et or hku) files, use hc ("Hanzi
Converter"), available via anonymous ftp from ahkcus.org [192.55.187.25]
in the src/unix directory.  (There is another conversion utility
available called b2g, but it seems to miss a large number of
characters.)  Since Big5 covers about 5,000 more characters than
GuoBiao, it's likely there will be a few missing characters in Big5
to GuoBiao conversions.

hi!

i would like to write a simple program that draws GB-encoded characters in

could someone please tell me where i can find out about the GB-format and
also about the details of the encoding used by either cclib.v or elib.65 .
(i would be interested to know if cclib.v or elib.65 preserve stroke order.)

any well-written, readable source code for similar programs would be useful.

many thanks!

Do you mean encode? If you want encode the chinese file for mailing it
out, all you do is to type: $uuencode infile outfile>&filename
on any unix machine. Then filename will be ready for sending.

If you want decode for reading chinese article, you just use $uudecode
file, then you will get the standard file back.

Good luck!

I wrote a lisp package that'll enable users of Emacs as well as Mule to input
GB coding using PinYin. (For those don't know, Mule stands for MultiLingual
Emacs, an excellent HanZi reader for Emacs lovers.) It, of course can also be
used to check your pinyin, even in Emacs on a dumb terminal. 

Features: 
 flexible format: pinyin with or without tone, easy input for Biao1 Dian3 Fu2
		  Hao4 
 instantaneous or batch processing mode
 userable even on dumb terminal, though slower

Coming soon: multi-character CiZu input, etc

Where to get it:  anonymous ftp from linac.fnal.gov

Brief documentation at the beginning of pig-mode.el.
Suggestions for improvements, comments, criticisms welcome.

VM/CMS uses a character set that is quite different from ASCII. Usually
your terminal software should do a EBCDIC<->ASCII translation, but 
usually not all characters are translated correctly.  Please check to
see if the ~, { and } characters are translated correctly (read this
message from your Unix and VM/CMS account to see if they are to same),
if not, you may be able to configure your terminal program to correct
the translation.
