Psyberhood.org is a nonprofit organization. Its sister website, Psybergram.com, makes money from charging subscription fees to users of apps written in a new programming language called Parthonyte. The apps are client-server, peer-to-peer, or standalone. Standalone apps can be accessed without a subscription.
Primary Mandate
The primary mandate of Psyberhood is to provide a tool, the House Peer-to-Peer app, which is used for teaching math. Organizations which employ volunteer tutors who provide free support to learners are encouraged to use the tool, and those users receive free subscriptions. If necessary, funding is sourced from grants and donations to cover any shortfall in operating revenue and expenses.
Secondary Mandate
In case Psybergram is profitable, the secondary mandate of Psyberhood is to develop and nurture online communities of consumer/survivors and other categories of people with disabilities. Organizations which work with consumer/survivors such as Progress Place will be encouraged to make use of these communities, and their users receive free subscriptions to Psybergram.
Monospaced Mode
Only monospaced mode is supported. All characters in a given panel are the same size, and adjacent cells in a given panel may be merged to form a subpanel. Panels and subpanels can contain a widget, graphic, or a block of text. Different panels containing text need not share the same font size. Subscripts and superscripts are offset vertically by half the height of a character cell. Lines of text can optionally be separated by a gap equal to half of a character cell. The canvas property of a panel supports drawing graphics such as lines, circles, and rectangles. Panels with canvases do not contain a character grid.
