Re: VMs: Backwards??

["Larry Roux" <lroux@xxxxxxx>]

The fac that the lines are left justified is the largest (but not only) indicator that the text was written left to right.  However, that could be an intentional red herring so anything is possible.

Actually I have brought it up before. It does seem a
little egocentric that the VMs is written in a western
way - left to right. I have my suspicions, but to me
the book looks like it should be read from bottom to
top, and right to left. Unfortunatly, I haven't found
any hard evidense to support this. 

I am currently working with an old army cryptolgolist
so hopefully this will actually yield something
useful.
