For example, here's how it renders a sentence from the first file:
The resulting folded strip, illustrated by the second drawing in the series, is then folded back on the lines a b and cd [third drazoing], forming the hexagon [ f o u r t h d r a w i n g ]; finally the blank triangle is turned under and pasted to the corresponding blank triangle on the other side of the strip.
I forgot to mention the point of quoting this sentence: wc -w says it's 64 words, but 47 is more like it. This was a particularly egregious case, with "[ f o u r t h d r a w i n g ]" contributing 15 spurious words. -- Tom Duff. There is no killer app. It's just Windows.
