GREETINGS, YOUNG PERSON! I'm MOHANDAS GANDHI from INDIA. And you are...? (say name to him. He is here, if you got to this file, he's with you now.)
Ahhhh, so pleased to meet you. I was a dissident activist once, always made a racket, picketed, got huge publicity about the people's complaints against the nasty English who colonized our country. I got thrown in jail endless times for long sentences too but I kept at it and finally we threw the ENGLISH OUT OF INDIA.
You are actually as colonized as we were, by the ties between corporative money and politics. You need to break those two up and you can do it too. As a writer/ researcher/ collector of information and then a POSTER, a blogger who inserts META TEXT in each piece so that folks searching on theme material find it! TRUST me, META TEXT is a magical thing, the basic secret of potent online activism. It's what makes scribblings go viral.
VIRAL, well-distributed DISSIDENT WRITINGS (and the writers who made them,) ARE SORELY NEEDED! APPLY HERE. IT WILL BE A BLISSFUL LIFETIME JOB! The WORLD NEEDS MORE BLOGGERS, researchers, enquiring minds, MORE PUBLISHERS, MORE VOICES RAISED in A CHORUS to STOP THE GREED of your rulers, their ABUSE, the police murdering, the CEOS putting you all in SLAVERY, the Gov's TAXATION so they can run wars for CEOS and get campaign donations. The whole CORRUPT, GREEDY WORLD of the BANKERS and the IMF and FED WHO RUN THE USA thru BOUGHT POLS.
Stop both parties and the pols who divvie up the party-pie, (Lard supplied by corporations that sell you junk). STOP THE GENOCIDAL WARS/ THE OLIGARCHS/ Stop FACISM/ DRUG DEALING BY THE CIA, ALL OF IT! It’s obvious that you’re a thinker, writer, concerned citizen, collector of articles, funny things, a potential researcher type of person --- attempting to hammer out a better planet, like me. You could triple the ease of doing wonderful research and save on the work involved with surfing the net, finding info, then saving it and sending it out (whether articles that I send you by email or stuff that you find on the net) with a good FILE MANAGER and if it's a good one it has a TEXT EDITOR.
If you don't type well, you need to hit the library, get a TYPING TEACHING MANUAL. There may be a free one DOWNLOADABLE on the internet. GOOGLE ONLINE and see.TO LEARN TO TOUCH TYPE super fast, not even looking,... MAVIS BEACON gives you a training program you can download, do an hour a day and type 100 wpm in about a week!) It was free a year ago when I got it!
Such software is the basis of the writer's start up! With typing skills, you could blog, send out all kinds of files to friends or work maybe, creating a whole list of clients, finding info and resubmitting to e-zines, collecting information and saving it in chunks, then joining them all together and making a big article, and submitting it or sending it to your mailing list....or putting it on your website for people to find and just sending them an URL (i.e. a UNIVERSAL RESOURCE LOCATOR, like the one where OUR RESEARCHER ANITA put a PORTAL to her 7,000 ONLINE FREE CLASSES (LIFE 101) AN EXAMPLE of what an URL LOOKS LIKE!YOU WANT to do it HTML colorized like this piece you're reading. DOWNLOAD SEAMONKEY FOR FREE, a fabulous HTM composer. Those emails you get from listers, posters and from your pals get ya goin', and YOUR POSTS will get THEM GOING. Just be watchful of sending your emails out too fast, all messy with >>>s. and coding. and RELAYING NET ROUTING MARKINGS! Clean them up with the TEXT EDITOR on your keyboard. WINDOWS KEY then R. (write "NOTEPAD" and click and it goes there.)
No one will read your letters with zest when they have all the old email headers and routing marks on it. So in your future on the INTERNET, you want to be an effective communicator and CLEAN UP those saved DOCUMENTS that you store in your cache, some time after you save them there. I usually clean files at night, when I'm too tired to write new stuff myself. I've got it down to where I can even do it while I talk on the phone!
As you know, on the internet, WRITING comes two ways. We either get HTML or text. Those are the two choices. HTML is all formatted and beautiful looking (although if you really look at the SOURCE, it’s in CODE, and kind of messed up with CODES) so I save to cache in text, even if the original document was in HTML.
And then I go INTO the cache using a ‘text editor’ (a kind of software you can get for free on the NET, downloading it) and clean it up so that there are never lines starting with >>’s or with that hazy italic print that indicates this is second or third hand text. And there are never headers saying it went to a mailing list of twenty people and then another of forty, etc. and on such a date it was at this server. All that’s extraneous fat on the ham!
You really DO want to remove all the headers and all the >>’s. Don’t just flip the article out of cyberspace or out of your email into a forwarding with all that mess on it. NO. It’s simple to SAVE IT TO CACHE as TEXT, never HTML. Then, go into ZTREE (a great file manager that you can download) and then edit them. Don’t use Microsoft or Windows Explorer, our standard file manager. NO WAY. You can’t edit your findings in Explorer. It’s relatively useless. So you need a professional’s FILE MANAGER. A visual one.
I am a tree. I grow in the Garden of Eden that the INTERNET has become!Go to ztree.com and download their amazing, miraculous FILE MANAGER. It’s free for 30 days, really cheap to buy. It has a GOOD text editor in it...ZTREE will make a "tree" , so every file on every directory is legible, visible, size, date, etc. like a menu from your wordprocessor.....and you can go up and down the tree, in a visual way. You can enter any file and work on it, then shut it up again.
Just visit this site and download it. Unzip it. Voila, you’re suddenly back in your first word processor days when a MENU full of your titled files was as available as a scroll-down. BUT THIS IS YOUR INTERNET SURFING GLEANINGS, all neatly stacked! You’ll love it!
With the help of my tekkie, I went one further; I got a more sophisticated text editor. To find one, go to a search engine and look for "text editor" and free, shareware. THEN, take it home and unzip it. Now, go to ZTREE, enter it. To install PFE use "configure" then hit ALT f-10, fill in the path where you put pfe.exe so that z-tree can find it. There, you’re LOADED FOR BEAR! HAPPY HUNTING!
Now, I go to my desktop at any time in my day’s work surfing the net, I click on my ztree icon which is right there on my Windows Desktop (a green TREE) and immediately see the menu of my C: drive, or if I log over to it, the D: DRIVE. I can log to c or log to d. It’s like DOS used to be. Remember it? Log to any drive? GOOGLE TERMS like PFE + text editor + free + download. I did and got PFE FREE! But it was an English university and it went out of business. SO NOW, you use ZTREE. It has a PFE type text editor right inside it. The main trick is to get two screens at once, so you can MOVE files on one screen (the OLD DIRECTORY) to the other screen, (THE NEW DIRECTORY that YOU JUST CREATED) You can use the alt- F8 key to create two boxes, C Drive on left, D on the right, then copy files to other directories.. You can ENTER and EDIT them in text and in html. NOT DOCS though. Well, you wouldn’t NEED to enter a WORD document this way. THAT you can do with MICROSOFT WORD. DOCS are for printing out for school. TEXT AND HTML is for your internet jottings. You can enter any file in TEXT or HTML (formatted text) and rewrite things. I ONLY EDIT ONE THING in HTML on a text editor <title> I know that search engines go INTO THAT ONE LINE there, so I put the whole description, "HOW TO USE A TEXT EDITOR" in where it says TITLE.. See, you NEEDED THIS!!!
At night, after surfing the net, and collecting files (which I save in TEXT not HTML!!!) I go into ztree, go to the directory that I call "(hold" (not cache as I don’t want it erased) and do alt-sort then hit "D" for date. That gives you the whole list of files on that directory in the order of their being ‘taken’. Then you go to the end and you have the latest files you downloaded. Those from that day. I clean them up.
I TAP ON "E" for edit which allows me to go in each, edit it, take out all the >>>> by saying find >> and replace with blank, nothing. then you say GO. and it goes bang thru entire article in a second and takes those out. No more >>> And no more of the list of twenty people who were on the old header as somebody sent this article to twenty friends. You want to get all that stuff OFF of the article or file.
How ? Well, I enter my HOLD directory, scroll down to the article I just saved, I enter it. Now, I highlight the HEADINGS THAT THE NET PUTS ON ALL EMAILS... and erase it, the stuff that reads from jane @ aol.com to etc. routed thru alaska.net etc. TAKE THEM OUT. It mucks up these important files you’re sending to the world. Makes people NOT WANT TO READ THEM. You want to be an effective information sender or activist, so learn to make your info look REAL GOOD!
Get Ztree and a good text editor, free online. The master combination for people who want to affect the future. If you have questions on how to load, unzip, create the start up icon for ztree, or install the PFE and have it boot up when you touch EDIT....ask me. BY EMAIL astrology at earthlink.net.
Now, don’t go yet. We’re going to start this NEW PRACTICE or HABIT right this second by saving MY LETTER TO YOU. Yes, this letter. Today. Now. How? By hitting ‘FILE’ at upper left top of screen, then ‘SAVE to’ and your PC is going to ask you where you want to stick it. Pick your (hold directory. That’s what I call mine. Call it "(hold" with a parenthesis in front so it’s at the top of the tree. If it were just HOLD it would be somewhere in the middle of the tree, harder to get to. And if you call it cache, it might get erased by the PC that knows how to erase automatically every few days!
Don’t have a HOLD cache? CREATE one. Go into explorer or your file manager, and create a directory. ANYWHERE. As long as you remember where it is. For me, it WAS D:\earthlnk\netscape\(hold but most PCS today do not have a D DRIVE. But in the old days I had that so memorized that when machine asks me ‘where do you want to store this file?’ I can type that ‘string’ in the dark. INFORMATION is the most valuable commodity in the new millenium.
Good saving to you!
-------------------------- GLITCHED FILE????----------------
OH NO! You’ve got a corrupted file! Yesterday you could enter it, now it’s dead as a doornail. It freezes up your whole computer! What do we do? We run to ztree in our arsenal of software, no? And with
ZTREE we look at it. We try to EDIT it, which means ENTER it
But oh no!!! Today, even ZTREE (a dos file manager) can’t get into it. But not to worry. You can probably FIX that CORRUPTED FILE and guess how? WITH ZTREE! This is a wonderful file manager software you can get free for a month, over at ztree.com (download it there). It’s about 30$ if you like it, and you get a whole month to play with it.
ZTREE has its own text editor, a dos txt editor. Or, you can add a few extra txt editors so you can do different things, like GET RID of those columns of numbers that exist on the LEFT side of each LINE! That’s a vertical eliminator.
The man who taught me about Ztree, Bill Kingsbury has learned to use masks and filters to strain that out. Let’s see if we all can learn that trick. I’m gonna teach it here, I THINK. See, I may not have done it enough to be certain and I’m just giving you his instructions to me which are later in this letter.
When you have a corrupted file, you have to go back into the COMPUTER nad take it with all the code and strain out the code and hope your data is left without mess or glitches.
Bill taught me to download any text off the net as html or txt. The basic choice. To do this you need ZTREE to clean it up, or it’s a mess of postage stamps, to/from/ servers, isps (INTERNET SERVICE PROVIDERS), time or hour/ date sent, >>> marks like that, etc. From him, I’ve learned to edit this HTML txt either taken off the net, or from email, with Ztree. Way down in the basement of the DOS WORLD of our machine.
I get there on DESKTOP. It’s an icon like a GREEN TREE. Touch it, whammie, you’re carried into the basement of your COMPUTER. There is every root of every tree. It’s a technicolor trip the way its inventor, Kim Henkel did it. (He’s at ztree.com)
ZTREE is always text level, non software word processor, non windows, although ztree fixes all of those.. even windows files. XTREE was the one for non windows environments. It goes under the text that is formatted, like DOS used to do. And show syou what’s in there, print.alphabet wise!
Of course, it doesn’t look all paragraphed or anything as there’s no formatting left. But in the case of LOST TEXT, who cares???
So download your ZTREE, it’s on the internet, at <http://www.ztree.com> then unzip it with winzip. Though Kim Henkel the inventor, offers a NON zipped version.
Now, go into it, and go to that directory,There may be some <enters> punched...there to create a highlighting situation and you may have to MOVE down the highlighted text.but play with it.D: and that subdirectory, maybe D:\mydocuments or
d:\office\wpwin\wpdocs\SICKFILE.doc and
1.) view the file in ASCII (choose A)
Then punch GATHER, (G.)
then MASK (m)
SAVE IT, rename it. Then see if the corrupted file has been cleaned up. I email the cleaned up file to myself then and SAVE IT and when I do, I rename it. WELLFILE.txt I can save it as text only in this DOS world. Then I can use my wordprocessor software, either Microsoft word, or WordPerf for windows or Word Perf for DOS (the three that I use) to pick it up as a text file, format it, and save the thing safely in my wordprocessor again.
The whole disk drive has to be cleaned up with scandisk as its’ origianl place has glitches. After you scandisk, do defrag, too. Always do those two after you clean entire hard disc of dead files. I use ZTREE for this. You can see every file, so I erase all temps files which GROW by the yard each day you surf the net!
NOW if ZTREE doesn’t work to fix the corrupted file. You need the FileFix.exe program in Norton Utilities ver.8 or ver.95 and my pal the King downloaded some info from them on some difficulties people might have when they’re NORTONIZING their files.
1.2 Why do I get a GPF or divide by zero error as I page down through my FILEFIXed WP 6.0 file? http://ZTREE.COM, download what you find there, Can you find explorer? Sometimes it’s not on the desktop as an ICON. First, Check on your desk top to see if it’s one of the ICON thingies on the menu. "Shortcut to Explorer" it will say if someone created the ICON already. IF NOT, YOU CREATE it. HOW? Go down to left hand bottom of screen. See where it says "START". Click twice. Crawl along that menu until you see ‘FIND" click there and when it asks you what you want to find,( files or folders), ask it to find explorer by FILLING IN THAT WORD. (ENTER.). It’ll find it in different areas. It will Report to you it’s ‘site.’ Or the many sites where it finds explorer type thingies. You want to go there and experience explorer, not hard. Just CLICK ON that green, highlighted square which it has already found for you, click on WHAT IT FINDS (that has an exe as the end which means execute.) When you click on something it will ‘execute’ or ‘go off’ or start to function. Executing a file is like its GENII comes out of the bottle. EXPLORER GENII is a kind of lame genii as we all know, but IT IS supposed to be A FILE MANAGER. It allows you to see files, see what’s in your computer. Play with it until you learn what it will do. You can’t explode your PC playing with it. Just fool around. And, so you can find it again more quickly... (as if we’d want to/ need to,) Create a SHORT CUT to be on your desktop. AN ICON that says ‘SHORTCUT TO EXPLORER" HOW? DOUBLE RIGHT CLICK ON THE BARE tapestry of your DESK TOP. Box appears. It will say what do you want to do? You say create a short cut. To where? Now here’s where you have to fill in the path. C:\windows\explorer.exe You have told it to create a shortcut button, to that place where Bill Gates FILE MANAGER that he puts in all windows.. is.
When you create icons, putting them on your desktop, you get ‘buttons’ on your dashboard. You’ll get a literal icon or ‘button’ that will be labelled "SHORTCUT TO EXPLORER. " And a picture or icon. PUSH that button and the genii appears, it ‘executes.’
NOW, MY FEELING is that there is another better file manager out there in cyberspace and you should download it and unzip it. So that’s the next lesson.
RIGHT now, get online. Oh, you are online. OK. CLICK MINUS ON EMAIL and GO TO your browser page and up there at top, write ZTREE.COM up in top box, push ENTER. check that ztree software out!!! This is like going into a showroom at a Caddie Agency.
And it’s FREE. So fill in all the boxes that say ‘yeah gimme it.’ FIRST, use explorer to create a directory for it. ALL FOR IT. Like building a garage all for it.
THEN go to ztree.com and ask for it. Go home, and what do you hage to do? Unzip the package. TO UNZIP software you get for free over the INTERNET, (always zipped up or concentrated into smaller globs of bytes, so they go thru fone wires fast) you need to use your WINZIP. GO LOOKING FOR it. WINZIP is inside your computer. REMEMBER HOW TO LOK FOR STUFF?
Hit START BUTTON, then hit the "FIND" BUTTON, You’ll get a "WHERE IS IT" MENU. Demand to know WHERE IS WINZIP? It will tell you. WRITE DOWN THE PATH with pencil on note pad. C:\windows\winzip.exe OK? That’s a "path."
Then go back to your desktop and create an ICON for it, RIGHT CLICK ON MOUSE until the thing asks you waht you want to do. Say CREATE SHORTCUT. Where to, what path it asks> FILL IN c:\windows\winzip.exe (I think that’s the path that’s on your machine.) So that when you push your ICON clickie clickie WINZIP will automatically come up, like a genii out of a bottle. THEN start downloading free software that pals recommend. From producers, manufacturers. I RECOMMEND THIS ZTREE ONE as the first first first.. You download it by creating a DIRECTORY FOR IT before you go to the manufacturer. Like cleaning a shelf on the mantle before you bring the oscar home. THE PATh is there. C:\WINDOWS\NEWSOFTWARE that’s all you need. So you go the factory in cyberspace, demand a free copy, it asks you where do you want it to go, say C:\windows\newsoftware (Actually I think that’s too many letters. Windows likes shorter. NUSOFT is good or ZTREE.
BING, THIS CAR MANUFACTURER sends your new caddie or oscar right thru to you; it comes thru the modem. Then turn off the modem, get OFFLINE, and go to your DESK TOP. SUMMON THE UNZIP GENII. By hitting your unzip icon. When the genii’s standing there... You say GENII. I just got this FILE MANAGER software called ZTREE, please go to C:\windows\nusoft\ztree.com and unzip it.
You can pick some other things up for free on the net and always install at c:\windows\nusoft\nameofsoftwarehere That’s a path. A tree . A directory. c:\ Windows\ \Nusoft\ name here It will make a tree once you have ztree.
But this one ztree, to see and use it, you gotta install it on your
C:\windows\nusoft\ztree directory or path or site. See, you have to
create a PERCH FIRST before you visit the factory in cyberspace.. You
want to learn to CREATE DIRECTORIES. That’s in explorer, and you can do
it with explorer. Play with it and learn that you create them on
C:\windows\ and then create
When you pull software out of cyberspace, you tell manufacturer to SEND it to C:\windows\nusoft\ztree and IT WILL. Remember, you have to create that PERCH that DIRECTORY before you go to manufacturer.
LOVE your trees, Your paths. Your directories. Memorize them. We stick things in directories. That is why you need ztree to see the TREE that directories really are.
When you create the c:\windows\nusoft\ztree directory remember that formula as it’s the PATH to it..
Not that you’ll ever go back along THAT path, because once ztree is installed, you’ll use the ICON (a little green tree) to click on to get the ztree genii out of its bottle. BUT I download articles on the net. DAILY it asks me its path. HOURLY, every ten minutes I gotta write the path for my HOLD tank for articles which is .....D:\earthlnk.\netscape\(hold I type that one all the time. (Note there’s no "i" in earthlink as it’s too many letters) DIRECTORIES are EIGHT LETTERS OR LESS.
So now you’re trained. Loaded for bear. Go to ztree.com and ask for it, it’s given across the atlantic by modem for free. Then, unzip it. YOUR WINZIP WILL DO IT. And when you have ZTREE you create the icon for it, a green tree, and guess what. JOY OF JOYS you will have a decent file manager, which EXPLORER is NOT
