Easy when you have a folding editor, isn't it? No one in their right
mind would try to read a 'flat' occam program of any non-trivial
nature. In fact, I wouldn't write code in *any* language without one
nowadays. If don't have one already, you can get a copy the Origami
folding editor sources (C version, for Unix) by sending a message
containing the following lines:
archiver tar
pack compress
send origamic
to archive-server@inmos.com
A Turbo Pascal version and PC executable version can be obtained from
the same place. Full information about the server can be obtained by
sending a message containing a single line saying "help" (no quotes).
Enjoy!
