Hi Greg,

Ok, so probably also in the doc the references to main() should be removed
too (or changing a little the paragraph to explaining that in code those
part has been removed because ...), right ?

Yes, but could be useful to simplify users that want to read a tutorial and
make experiments with code in the same time, so reading the file name of
bxml files could be useful to know what to open directly in the IDE, all
here ...

Ok, I was confused by the removing of relative path in other places (now "/"
is mandatory in some places), and maybe some reference to it (but in other
parts of tutorials) should be updated (but probably this is already Ok).

Ok, but what do you think to put a line of text there to say something like
"this is covered in the ... Tutorial" (even without an hyperlink, but just
as an info).

Yes, and maybe not only in tutorials ...

Ok, but could be useful when (for many reasons) the launcher is not
ScriptApplication.

Thank you very much (even for other fixes),
Sandro
