XanaduÆ is a registered trademark of Project Xanadu. TransLitô and Xanadu Purpleô are claimed trademarks of Project Xanadu.
Previous Xanadu designs have always assumed the public availability of source documents (sourcedocs) which are not xanadocs, but we have not paid much attention to their management.
For Xanadu Purple we must now get down to business and give this some thought.
There are three types of sourcedocs--
- xanadocs
- conventional docs
-- textfiles
-- html
-- .doc
