redactor
A JavaScript tool for making erasure poetry from websites.
redactor can be downloaded as a Chrome extension here.
The source code of the extension is in the redactor-extension folder.
Console usage
You can run redactor in the Chrome console by copy/pasting the contents of redactor-console.js
and hitting return. You can then click and drag to delete text.
The blackout
variable lets you choose whether to blackout text with ███ or whiteout text.
By default, text will be blacked out. However, simply enter blackout = false
into the console to enable whiteout. Enter blackout = true
to return to blackout mode.
The console version does not support the "undo" function available on the Chrome extension.
