Barbara Blithers;


Worse would be if the user didn't work from the VMS directly but from
notes of plaintext extracted from the VMS via a "key", then those
worknotes not only defeated the purpose of the VMS but were dangerous
documents in themselves.

So in therefore the only "safe" senario I can envision is if the "key"
to the VMS is simple enough to be kept in one's head, simple enough that
the VMS may be "read off" in a single pass, and the nessesity for
written of physical keys, and the need for worknotes etc, is eliminated.


Or the key itself is written in the document and just looks like any other
part of the text. :-)
