- HyperRez: Construction speed: <sum07 1 4>
- =============================
-
- Experienced hypertext developers can create excellent hypertext
- systems using any number of software packages. However, the time
- to accomplish this can vary by factors of 100 to 1. For example:
-
- ASCII files, production speed
- =============================
-
- I know of hypertext developers that use our HyperRez utilities to
- daily convert 100 pages of text into more than 200 ASCII files that
- contain perhaps 400 unique cross-links. <link10 1 4>
-
- And...graphic hypertext, built by competitors -- Woops!
- =======================================================
-
- Trade literature reports typical averages of less than one file per
- hour with hypertext systems that depend on graphic files such as
- HyperCard or Guide. Not all pictures are worth a 1000 words!
-
- For developers, construction speed is most important; for users,
- the quality of the construction is most important <link04>.
