Boustrophedon is a reading-/writing-style that alternates direction
|
||
|
|
every line. It was originally created by the ancient Greeks. Once one
|
||
|
|
gets good at reading the 'backwards' text, reading (and writing) can
|
||
|
|
go much faster, as the eye (or hand) does not have to whip back to the
|
||
|
|
margin when the end of a line is reached. One simply goes down a line
|
||
|
|
and continues in the opposite direction.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In the case of a paragraph ending, the next paragraph should retain
|
||
|
|
the horizontal position, and (depending on which the text is closest
|
||
|
|
to: the center of the screen or the margin) continues in the same
|
||
|
|
direction, or continue in the opposite direction.

This program formats the text-files to be read in this manner.
