Summary: | This report provides information on and guidelines for the implementation of the Computer Readability Editing System (CRES), which was developed for use in improving the ease of comprehending Navy technical manuals and training materials. The essential features of the CRES that potential users will have to consider in implementing the system in a new environment are described, as well as its use as a component of a computer-based publishing system. Step by step instructions accompanied by flow charts take the user through the five subsystems that support the two basic functions--the creation and maintenance of word lists and text files, and analysis of text passages. Appended documentation includes descriptions and programs for the master menu, text file subsystem, word substitution file subsystem, supplementary word file subsystem, phrase substitution subsystem, and text analysis programs. A list of the WANG Basic-2 commands frequently used in the programs provides explanations of their functions and examples. This report, together with TAEG-83 (ED 190 064), contains complete documentation of the system. (LLS) |
