Embedding of DataTypes objects
The most exciting feature within HyperText-DataType-System is, that possibly all other files/objects can be embedded within a document. Requirement for this is, that the appropriate DataType supports the DTM_DRAW method. But currently only view datatypes supports the DTM_DRAW method (see below). In future the hypertext.datatype itself will support this method, so that it would be possible to embed a HyperText object within a HyperText object.
For example to embed a directory listing using the directory.datatype within a HyperGuide document.
But with this possibility you must take care when writing HyperTextdocuments to not recursively embed a object.
