HYPERMEDIA ARRANGEMENT USING A WINDOW SYSTEM AND LAYERED INTRINSICS An information management system having a hypermedia file that works with the X Window System and Xt Intrinsics is disclosed. The disclosed arrangement generates and uses a hypermedia information management system, which includes a windowing system and, responsive to a set of intrinsics, generates a set of widgets. A hypermedia file, which includes a hierarchical ordering of objects, such as hypermedia lines and hypermedia segments among the hypermedia lines, is generated. A specially encoded function with parameters for defining items sends a file to be included in a window, the location and size of the window in a display of the file, and a label for identifying the generated segment is used for controlling the display of information, whether pictorial, graphic, text, et cetera, or the execution of another program from the hypermedia file. A specially encoded function is also used for notifying a user of information from the hyperfile, the information being correlated to the particular detected one of the specially encoded functions.
