#13724 — Explaining wily & ETHO

Q: How do you      clean up long-broken lines of text ... to look like

> How do you clean up long-broken
> lines of text ... to look like

A: just wipe the bad-text and clik |Wfmt , that you see ANYWHERE on
the screen; and the bad-text in that one of any of the text Frames 
visible on the screen: rearranges. 

You want to google for more info about:--
VoiceOfAmerica broadcast this interview with this woman author of the
book about <corruption> where she explains how Afganistan, Nigeria
..etc. don't have governments, but rather: criminal organisations,
milking their populations. Which realisation has massive implications
for global politics, affecting you and your family's life.
--
So do you launch your full-featured-browser and google?
Only if you're a short-sighted-slob who impulsively journeys
to the shop to buy immediate consumptions.
--
Better to just add 1 line to you script, which will fetch it WHEN you go
on-line, to fetch other stuff and your email ...etc.:
 gg1 %22Sarah+Chase%22+book+corruption+Afganistan+Nigeria  VOA
--
This will put the initial search-finds in the file: VOA.
Opening VOA with your editor is just another short-sighted, waste of time.
You'll need to examine and select some of the found links, but not
standing-up/live-on-line; rather at your leisure - for consideration.

File: VOA; will become your book on the specific topic.
Open wily in the directory that you have appropriately chosen to house VOA.
"klux" means click the appropriate button/s of your 3-button mouse.
 
Any non-trivial task that you do requires multiple files to be open and
viewable simultaneously, unless you're prepared to arrange your life as
Micro$loth and google have designed it, for THEIR benefit.

wily [freeware based on ETHO] allows multiple active text-frames.

For this little task, I need access to 4...6 files, "together":
* Get = my script which fetches and stores stuff when I go on-line.
* LS = file of URLS for `Get` to fetch next time on-line.
* VOA = one of the book-files being currently constructed.
* ??X1 = other book-files being currently constructed by THIS particular
    GET
* ??X2 = other files [probably in other directories] related to this job.
--------
All text, in any of wily's currently open TextFrames is LIVE: can be
activated, per CLI, by just kluxing.
--
A less trival task that I find wily indispensible for is: eg. for this
VOA-corruption-terrorism analysis; putting some of the material to 
USBstik as Text-to-Speech, to avoid the need to read it, and just 
listen when I'm lying down.

Typically a 10-min. sound file needs 6 klux [plus the extra quick editing
to eg. add missing "." to header lines, to prevent the header lines 
<running into the following speeched-text>.  If you understand?
--
ETHO has better variable font, and coloring adds an extra dimension
enabling more pieces of text scattereed over multiple files to be
corelated. 


PS. did you find a link/s to the author/'s book?
It justifies it's own blog.
Alvin Toffler's 1975 "the 3rd wave" analysed/predicted the current
global situation: unemployment, massive wealth disparity....
