..^U:HELP.       P R O O F   R E A D E R
..         BY ROBERT E. KUPFER..     ANY
ONE WHO HAS HAD EXPERIENCE.WITH PUBLISHE
RS KNOWS THAT THEY TEND.TO CRITICIZE.  Y
ES, AS UNFAIR AS IT.MAY SEEM, SOME PUBLI
SHERS WILL.ACTUALLY REFUSE TO PUBLISH SO
METHING.IF IT DOESN'T MEASURE UP TO THEI
R.STANDARDS.  FORTUNATELY FOR US.ASPIRIN
G AUTHORS, PROGRAMMERS LIKE.ROBERT KUPFE
R HAVE WRITTEN NIFTY.ROUTINES THAT WILL 
HELP AUTHORS.ANALYZE THEIR OWN WRITING B
EFORE THEY.SEND OFF THEIR MASTERPIECES T
O.CHURLISH AND UNGRATEFUL PUBLISHERS.WHO
 OFTEN KNOW NOTHING ABOUT GREAT.LITERATU
RE...     PROOF READER DOES MORE THAN.CH
ECK SPELLING AND COUNT WORDS,.THOUGH.  I
T CALCULATES A "FOG INDEX"..A WHAT?..   
 IN 1952, ROBERT GUNNING FIRST.CONCEIVED
 OF THE FOG INDEX.  SINCE.ALMOST NO ONE 
LIKES TO BE CONFUSED,.PEOPLE PREFER TO R
EAD ARTICLES THAT.REGISTER SLIGHTLY BELO
W THEIR.COMPREHENSION LEVEL.  THIS MEANS
 THAT.A PERSON WHO HAS 12TH GRADE READIN
G.COMPREHENSION WOULD PREFER READING AN.
ARTICLE WRITTEN FOR A 9TH GRADER.BECAUSE
 IT DOESN'T REQUIRE A LOT OF.WORK AND FR
EQUENT THUMBINGS THROUGH.DICTIONARIES...
.    HERE'S HOW A FOG INDEX IS.GENERATED
.  IT COUNTS:.. 1. THE NUMBER OF WORDS I
N A DOCUMENT. 2. THE NUMBER OF "LONG" WO
RDS. 3. THE NUMBER OF SENTENCES. 4. THE 
AVERAGE NUMBER OF WORDS IN A.    SENTENC
E...    LONG WORDS ARE THOSE THAT EXCEED
.EIGHT CHARACTERS IN LENGTH.  NINE.CHARA
CTERS MAY SEEM SHORT FOR A."LONG" WORD B
UT HOW MANY WORDS CAN.YOU THINK OF THAT 
ARE NINE LETTERS OR.LONGER THAT AREN'T R
ELATED TO.CHEMISTRY, BIOLOGY OR TAXES?..
..    WHEN PROOF READER COMES UP WITH A.
FOG INDEX FOR YOU, REMEMBER YOU'RE.NOT L
OOKING FOR THE HIGHEST SCORE.POSSIBLE.  
YOU'RE LOOKING FOR A RATING.AT LEAST AS 
LOW AS THE AUDIENCE IT.WILL GO BEFORE.  
IF THE RATING IS TOO.HIGH FOR THE EXPECT
ED AUDIENCE,.PERHAPS IT'S TIME TO REWRIT
E THE.DOCUMENT, EXPLAINING YOUR CONCEPTS
 IN.A MORE ACCESSIBLE WAY...    WHAT DOE
S A FOG INDEX MEAN?.WELL, A FOG INDEX OF
 6.00 MEANS THAT.A SIXTH GRADER SHOULD B
E ABLE TO.UNDERSTAND THE TEXT.  THIS IS 
THE.LEVEL THAT NEWSPAPERS USUALLY WRITE.
AT IN ORDER TO REACH THE MAXIMUM.NUMBER 
OF PEOPLE...    OF COURSE, MOST SIXTH GR
ADERS.DON'T READ NOVELS SO THE FOG INDEX
.WOULD BE HIGHER FOR A NOVEL OR A.TRADE 
MAGAZINE...    FENDER ASSUMES YOU'RE EDU
CATED.AND CONSISTENTLY WRITES AT COLLEGE
.LEVEL.  IF YOU ENJOY HIS TONGUE IN.CHEE
K STYLE THEN CONSIDER YOURSELF A.FELLOW 
BRAIN.  I, ON THE OTHER HAND,.AM INTO DA
NGLING PARTICIPLES, SHORT.SENTENCES, EVE
N ONE-WORD SENTENCES..REALLY!  MY INDEX 
USUALLY HOVERS.AROUND 10.6.......    PRO
OF READER IGNORES GROUPS OF.SPACES, PUNC
TUATIONS AND CARRIAGE.RETURNS, MAKING YO
UR FOG INDEX MORE.ACCURATE THAN SOME OTH
ER FOG INDEX.PROGRAMS.  IT WORKS WITH BO
TH ASCII.AND SCREEN CODE FILES...    AFT
ER RUNNING IT, USE THE CURSOR.KEYS TO SE
LECT THE OPTION YOU WANT..IF YOU WANT TO
 SCAN A FILE, JUST.PRESS RETURN AND TYPE
 IN THE FILE.NAME.  IF YOU'RE UNSURE OF 
THE EXACT.NAME OF THE FILE, JUST ENTER N
O.FILENAME TO SEE THE DIRECTORY.  OR.YOU
 CAN JUST SELECT DIRECTORY FROM THE.MENU
.  YOUR FOG INDEX IS CALCULATED.BEFORE Y
OUR EYES.  NO WAITING!..    PROOF READER
 ALSO SUPPORTS DRIVE.NINE.  IF DRIVE NIN
E IS ON, YOU ARE.ASKED WHETHER OR NOT YO
U WANT TO USE.IT.  IF YOU CHANGE YOUR MI
ND AT ANY.TIME ABOUT THE DRIVE YOU WANT 
TO USE,.JUST PRESS "8" OR "9" AND THE DE
VICE.NUMBER WILL BE SWITCHED TO WHICHEVE
R.KEY YOU PRESS...    I'M GOING TO COPY 
IT OVER TO MY.WORD PROCESSING DISK TO MA
KE SURE.THAT EVERY MEMO I WRITE TO FENDE
R HAS.A FOG INDEX OF AT LEAST 78.43 SINC
E.HE DOESN'T APPRECIATE READING TOO FAR.
BELOW HIS LEVEL OF COMPREHENSION...EDITO
R'S NOTE: DOES THIS MEAN THAT I.HAVE TO 
START READING YOUR MEMOS,.JEFF?...******
