The DOCUPLEXTRON is...

...the Alph project's client prototype: a Web Extension that provides a dynamic environment for reading, writing, composing, and linking documents in a xanalogical way.

In its zoomable workspace you can:

- Compose and edit plain-text and (xanalogical) HTML documents

- Create visible links between text, images, and other Web resources

- View and take clippings of Web resources

- Switch between an unlimited number of customizable Nelson document workspaces[*]

- Publish your text, documents, and links to the Web

The Docuplextron, like the rest of the Alph system, is experimental. It's an idiosyncratic and very bespoke bit of software, written for myself as a proof-of-concept and as a playground for exploring xanalogical hypertexts. The design goal: a "multifarious, polymorphic, many-dimensional, infinite blackboard"[.

* The term "Nelson document" has been proposed by Jason Scott for documents with parallel presentation and visible interconnection; Ted Nelson himself has called this the "parallel textface™".
