I figured the way around it would be to write a word processor that
created multiple text tool documents.  The trick would be in linking
each of the separate documents (with their own ruler) together and
allowing the user to change the location of where in the overall text
that the breaks occur.

This probably confused a lot of people but hey, I haven't thought much
beyond this point yet.  I also can't really start something like this
yet as I don't have all the programming manuals and I'm real busy at
work.  But soon though, real soon.  :)
