Great poem!

There was a nice project - an artist did I forget her name in the late 80's
or early 90's in HyperCard - it was a complex text and graphic story - black
and white of course - I never read it all unfortunately - would love to
track it down now - but the story would dip into the code sometimes and then
back to the story. That is the hypertext sometimes triggered an "edit
script" link which would then reveal some of the plot!

I really liked this at the time, I still do. Can be done better in Rev as
the Script Editor can be customised as well (not like in hyperCard) - so you
can have links back from the code to the plot (not just closing the window).

I hope a little bit of that comes off with the wikiCode project I am working
on now - not sure of the name yet - revCode, wikicode, r-Code - either way
it is a place for shared code mainly - but maybe a few poems :)
