   • 1997, Espen J. Aarseth, Cybertext: Perspectives on Ergodic Literature, →ISBN, page 63:

     A hypertext such as Afternoon (Joyce 1990) will have a fixed number of scriptons (and textons), while the game Adventure (Crowther and Woods 1976) will have a fixed set of textons but a variable number of scriptons (texton cominations), determined by the progress of the play. In a MUD, where other concurrent users can type in anything, the number of textons is not known.

   • 2012, Markku Eskelinen, Cybertext Poetics: The Critical Landscape of New Media Literary Theory, →ISBN:

     First of all, reading the whole text is the strongest literary convention, but as was implicit in the earlier discussion, it can now mean at least four slightly different things: reading every texton and scripton, reading every texton, reading every scripton, and taking every given path through the text (i.e. exhausting the variety of paths).

   • 2013, Zach Waggoner, Terms of Play: Essays on Words That Matter in Videogame Theory, →ISBN, page 21:

     Relative ergodic events are chains of events produced by the efforts of one or more individuals or mechanisms that have limited effect upon the textons or scriptons of a narrative such that the impact is only capable of affecting change in monor events within a scripton, or changing narratives at the micro scale and do not impact narratives at the macro scale.
