Figure 4: Interaction of the main components of the YEdit engine

The YEdit system is composed of the components in "Figure 4: Interaction of the main components of the YEdit engine".  The main components are the "User Interface", the "Middle Interface", and the "Server Interface".  Each of these interfaces will be discussed in the following sections.  As can be seen from the figure, the Web interface is just one of several possible methods of interacting with this system, two other methods of interacting will be using standalone programs, both GUI and command line, and directly with word processors.  The same flexibility is contained in the server interface, with the ability to access other storage options such as CVS repositories, or databases.
