Text editor with scrolls

In a ground-breaking way* NMRM Corp presents the two scrolls and plastic sheet text editor.

One scroll goes above the pc screen, and one below it. The scrolls hold about 50m of transparent film.

By dint of a camera and OCR software, the rollers synchronize with the text as you edit the document.

The plastic film allows you to tippex bits out and the small pockets on the film are for post-it notes.

After the document is finally edited to your satisfaction, take out the film and wash off the tippex, and sling the notes away.

* A freak gust of wind blew the cast iron prototype out of a 5th window storey onto the garden. You can't get more ground breaking than that. The petunias may never be the same again.

       I tried getting used to Linux Mint for a bit. But I’m too old of a Windows dog to try and learn new tricks I guess.
