part 3 of "From Memex to Hypercard" commentary:
"aligning/compressing planes"
For the final installment, merge the diamond and square excel screens/sheets to align/line things (compress) using l-systems[0][1][2][3] / turtle programing[4][5][6]
Basic execl l-system concept, is each cell in given square sheet column (highlighted with color of interest) has list of all corresponding similar diamond cells of same color. each square sheet column then is a different picture, an 'l-system' picture.
The trick to finding the diamond cells to put in corresponding square cell color block is XORing square cell color checking for with each diamond sheet cell. If get no color back, then add the diamond sheet cell number to current square sheet cell list (aka no need to mess with garbage results).
