;;; Commentary:

;; The single entry point, `dissociated-press', applies a travesty
;; generator to the current buffer.  The results can be quite amusing.

;;; Code:

which is redisplayed each time text is added to it.

If ARG is positive, require ARG chars of continuity.
If ARG is negative, require -ARG words of continuity.
Default is 2."
