Abstract
CPP-TRS (Tonfoni 1989--94) is both a methodology and a language. Through the methodology (CPP -- Communicative Positioning Program) those invisible aspects of communication are identified and represented by the meta-language (TRS -- Text Representation Systems), which complements natural language. CPP--TRS is a new paradigm which applies to any communicative context. Icons in CPP-TRS are not intended to represent words or sentences in order to substitute them; they are rather intended to represent visually what natural language does not convey naturally. The improvement of communication is a challenge of the present and the future: CPP-TRS is designed explicitly for it. The CPP-TRS system thus is able to support the user with a set of visual tools, that are specifically suited to structuring text and communicating effectively. The same tools can support communication very effectively in situations where ambiguity can highly compromise the final result. The system may be used in a way that is either opaque or transparent to the reader of the text.
