SCENE TWO
[A hay field, recently mowed. A man and his dog walk along the right edge. Two young deer are mid-field, eating fresh cuttings. They sense the strangers and run to the forest's edge. The man notices the deer and makes a decision.]MAN: "Go get 'em!"
[The dog takes off full speed across the field. The game is familiar. Often it is played without anything to "get" but nonetheless he shows enthusiasm and unfettered speed.]
DEER 1: here comes a wolf...we should run brother
DEER 2: stay your course Moribund its trajectory is not coincidental with our position
[Deer remain frozen in place. Dog speeds across the field, passing within thirty feet of deer. The man shakes his head in mirth.]
DEER 2: it is as I predicted, the beast is a plaything, its aggressive actions merely an entertainment. it must rely elsewhere for sustenance
DEER 1: you are wise Peer but what of the man
DEER 2: yes, it is conceivable that he wishes us ill. the beast has passed let us make our exit
[Deer exit stage left. Dog winds down in a long arch back towards the road. The Man pauses to watch the Sunset and turns for home.]
The site search function is back. Searching for text returns a page with short summaries. Also added is an indicator for those which include an image. Searching for Zeke turns up 48 entries, less than half of which have an image. Much fewer than I expected. Writing the new search was much easier than the old one which had to pour through hundreds of html text files and strip out all of the page formatting and scripting.
I've also added a print feature. It is for printing out a single entry as opposed to a whole page. Folks have asked about this, wanting to print out pictures or single articles so I hope it does the trick.
Browsing through FTrain's past entries I ran across his Emacs Notepad a collection of tips and scripts. Having spent a past life (well, past job) in Emacs this brought back fond memories. Be sure to scroll down to the section on Using Perl to Interface with Emacs.
For soothe!!!
