3.Overview of the Mentor hypertext editing system based on the Utags utility.mentor prs 1
Mentor is an editing environment hypertexte_en based on
the use of text files with a particular textual form
allows to structure the information in a non restrictive but sufficiently precise and orderly way
to allow the user to keep an optimal knowledge of this information.
The organization is hierarchical, indexed and hypertextual.
It is a langage_de_balisage_léger cf . langage de balisage leger mentor .
which allows the programmation_lettrée.
Even after several years of use, the mentor textual base must allow to find very quickly a precise information (a few seconds for information dating back several years).
Mentor stores the information but also the means of access to the information, relying on the physical definition of information : cf entropie
Mentor is able to store an idea association, which can then be used in the future when a memory needs to be reactivated.
There is thus an interpenetration between the user's memory and the
mentor's brief. This interpenetration is formalized by a nomenclature and a method.
The mentor organization is flexible and the tool can therefore be adapted to any method.
A method is necessary, however, because of the basic flexibility of thehypertexte_en even if it is structured by the tree of nested domains-subdomains-files-text blocks.
The . langage de balisage leger mentor allows a number of simple applications naturally integrated into the tool such as :
Do you find all the textual information in your business difficult to manage, organize and maintain? The reason is probably that you do not have a document management system that focuses on the meaning of your information.
Indeed, the link between human memory and external textual computerized memory is generally not taken into account in information storage systems.
Unleash the power of hypertext editing with mentor.
Thanks to the . langage de balisage leger mentor and its analyzer utags_en via the text editor . gvim you have the opportunity to manage all your documentation as an evolving hypertext.
Hypertext is the most successful way to manage textual information but despite this very few people use such a system because hypertext languages like HTML are heavy to manage: when hyperlinks are defined (labels and references to labels) it becomes impractical to modify them because they are overlays containing the path to the label.
The system mentor_en has been designed to handle hypertext with maximum flexibility.
The mentor system allows :
The perl sources of the modules are provided as well as a template of the . lbl mentor which allows you to develop your own analysis and text transformation modules according to your particular needs.
