Because the user doesn't know what information he doesn't know! Many times I've come accross a set of explanations that is completely incomprehensible, and I couldn't begin to tell you how to fix it, because I don't have a clue what the instructions should be saying. Asking someone who doesn't understand the system how to explain it, is generally not very productive. > > b) Cygwin requires users to learn what is effectively another language. > > ?

Are you really that oblivious to how different a Unix environment is to a Windows environment? I'll just ignore the rest of your post, as it is filled with similar nonsense. You don't seem to realize that you're expecting the user to be confortable with something that is truly alien to them. Until you realize this, you are not going to write a useful document. -- Daniel Carrera | I don't want it perfect, Join OOoAuthors today! | I want it Tuesday. http://oooauthors.org | --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
