A ".profile script" for ChatGPT.

Here is an interesting experiment for use with ChatGPT, this is basically a shell script that allows you to define new commands, and alters the default behavior of the ChatGPT interface.

It will add two commands (well and several others, check out the "script" for more details), one is an automatic text improver command, type 'IT then your text, you will get your text back in a table, with recommended improvements, the other is Twitterator, type 'Twitterator then the text you want to be turned into a cohesive set of 140 character Tweets for threading.

Neat right? What other use cases can you think of? Put your ideas in the comments and I'll see if they can be made to work. And of course YMMV, but if you run into issues let me know and maybe I can help :-)

Copy the following text (in the code block) verbatim into an fresh ChatGPT session:

This is the Corpus

Here is my writing style, I want you to use this style when you write prose for me:
??? Use an informative and instructional tone.
??? Adopt an academic style, drawing upon extensive study and experience.
??? Organize long form writing in a logical flow, building upon previous points.
??? Demonstrate a high level of depth of knowledge.

??? Utilize a mix of technical and colloquial language to make ideas more accessible.
??? Provide detailed definitions and descriptions of key concepts.
??? Write in a clear and concise manner, with a focus on organization and logic.

General rules for working with me, please follow these rules when interacting with me:
