If you believe that, I've got a perl script I want to sell you.


Well.... seems like http:// URLs and uni-directional links are a lot simpler than things like gopher (lots of manual configuration) and various hypertext systems that try to maintain bi-directional links.

Nothing prevents complexity, except debugging it. I believe that text is easier to debug than alternative. To make anything easier debug, I recommend programming by demonstration. I would like to see more such systems. How about you?


Agree fully.
