Quotations
268 ;;Quote: KMS includes a script language of nearly 800 commands; a KMS frame acts as a function with links as function calls; self-documenting
268 ;;Quote: the KMS action language is a block-structured, command language using links to other frames for nesting; nodes as block and links as calls; nearly 800 commands
268+;;Quote: KMS agents may be large hierarchies of frames distributed over a wide-area network; using KMS action language
268 ;;Quote: KMS agents are frames with documentation, graphics, images, and cross-references to other frames
268+;;Quote: representing a program as a hierarchy of frames encourages top-down, stagewise refinement
269 ;;Quote: trigger KMS scripts by left button, same as links; distinguish by hollow bullet for links and solid bullet for actions
269 ;;Quote: rapid code-test cycle using on-line construction sets of example programs, frames, scripts, functional index, alphabetical index, and debugging support
