I searched for "meskalin software" and the first link I found was this: http://www.xbeat.net/meskalin/-ad-min (September 10, 2007, 08:46 AM)

Yep, that's it. Sorry about stirring up this excitement about Meskalin. I was not aware that posts here are read that carefully.
Meskalin is nothing but a little screen loupe I wrote for myself but never published. I use it all the time to check color values and other graphic details. It also has some interesting recursive functions that generate near-chaotic psychedelic effects -- hence the name. If there's interest I can post a download link (freeware, but no support, no help file!...).

Thanks, it's very old.
Here you go:

*** no cost, no support, no help file ***
For the psychedelic effects press keys F3, 2, G (in any order)*, then move cursor over the Loupe near to the loupe borders and relax... :) Here's screenshot (as a warning ;)): http://www.xbeat.net/meskalin/meskalin-screenshot.png
* This is just one combination... there's a lot to discover... but I won't help you finding it ;)

OK, by popular demand: Chapter by Chapter -- or CbC, for short!
CbC essentially manages a book manuscript, which is kept in separate chapter files. This add in, which works as a small separate program, sits on top of Microsoft Word.
Once CbC is open, one enters a new chapter title, which opens up a blank page in Word, where one writes or imports a chapter, or at least the beginnings. Then start another chapter, and so on. Soon CbC displays in its window a list of all your chapters, all stored in sepapate Word files, including word count for each one. One can drag and drop each chapter into a different order, rearranging one's book. And if one needs to see the entire book in one file, a click of the mouse brings them all together in a single file, where one can do editing, paginating, change format to suit a particular publisher.
I'm working on a huge book project. I've tried so many different programs to manage the project -- and I always return to CbC. And it's free.
