appended is a "first pass" at a p.g. categorization scheme.
unlike the "tagging" models, i'm using here a "folder" model.
inside each folder will be a bunch of alias "files" that point to
the e-texts proper. this allows you to put one e-text into
multiple folders, by simply generating another alias file.
the possibility of nesting folders is also present.
as i've said, i think the cataloging tool needs to give people
an ability to rule out unwanted classes of e-texts, including:
first cut -- by language
second cut -- human genome
third cut -- audio
fourth cut -- video
fifth cut -- magazines
sixth cut -- copyrighted
seventh cut -- reference
eighth cut -- religious
ninth cut -- poetry
tenth cut -- plays
eleventh cut -- short story collections
twelfth cut -- anthologies
and once a person has ruled out whatever they don't want,
the downloading of the other e-texts can go automatically.
