Archive-name: auto/alt.hypertext/The-World-s-First-Hypertext-Dissertation-FORMAT

FYI, I completed my dissertation on the hypertext topic in December, 
1991.  It was from the library science view, involving the design of 
access to information within a hypertext system.

In response to several requests from people asking if it was available in 
ASCII or other electronic format, I finally got around to transporting 
it to an MS-DOS HyPlus (MaxThink) version back about March or so.  It was 
case study methodology, a study of the huge MaxThink CD-ROM hypertext on the 
accounting/auditing subject, done under contract for Deloitte & Touche.  
Since it was ABOUT MaxThink, my choice of hyperformat was an obvious one.

I've uploaded it to several FTP sites.  For those who may be interested, 
I've appended availability information.

Cheers,
ernest
