Organization of Data Files:
    A Hypertext Database is made up of data files. Each data file contains
    text. In order that the right text be found in a timely manner, we must
    use commands that identify text as a certain type. The two basic types
    of text are short entries and long entries. The first level is made up
    of short entries. Text is declared as a short entry with the command
    !short:. Each short entry cannot exceed one line of text. The second
    type of text within a database is the long entry. There is no command
    that specifies text as a long entry, it is simply a block of text that
    is positioned between two short entries. Each long entry can be up to
    65,536 characters.
