you can find some minimal hints under
http://www.budabe.de/grammatologie/geordnetes_weltbild_toc.pdf, the
table of contents of the book and the only part that's online in pdf format.

I'll seek to construct a sample file with some example pages with
particularly interesting passages.

with Omega. While on the one hand a key strength, the process is highly
intransparent and difficult to debug. However, I'll try to think of a
