Wow the author himself :) thanks!

Can I make a suggestion for the documentation? I've used analog 3 times
since 1998 and each time I struggled with it a bit, and I think I know
how to make it quite easier to learn.

The problem for me each time is that all the commands relevant to one
report section are scattered throughout the docs. If I am trying to
debug the ref section, for example, there's quite a few commands I need
to know about:

REFERRER
REFALIAS
REFARGSFLOOR
REFARGSINCLUDE
REFCHART
REFCOLS
REFEXCLUDE
REFFLOOR
REFLINKINCLUDE
REFREPEXCLUDE
REFSORTBY
SUBREFFLOOR

And what they all do isn't entirely clear at first blush. I think it
would be very helpful to have a section in the quick reference page (or
an additional page) that shows all the commands broken into groups by
the report they affect, and a section for all the meta-commands that
apply to all sections (allchart, barstyle, etc.).

Thanks for your attention :) I do have one more question, reluctant
though I am to bother you :) In my report I'm finding that 90% of the
referrals are to images instead of pages. I can't figure out how to turn
off *.gif targeted files (for example) in the referrer report without
turning it off in all the other sections. Can you clear this up for me?

Thx again
joe
