Reading documentation is painful, and shouldn't be necessary (beyond very general documentation) for basic configuration tasks (like clear crisp fonts [1], device permissions and aliases, etc.). Reading documentation should only be necessary for more advanced non-luser configuration. In Linux these days, the non-documentation reading alternative is provided only through WIMPshit, if at all. Ion also isn't perfect in that respect, and I think going for full scripting support may have been a mistake in the end (but then again, maybe Ion wouldn't have a lot of the small nice features it has these days, without it), but I've tried to make the basic options rather tolerable (just copy over cfg_ion.lua). See also [2]. I want to be a mere (l)user wrt. software i don't particularly care about! But I don't want to use WIMPshit; in that case I could just as well use Windows. The DOS era was the pinnacle of computing. [1]: http://iki.fi/tuomov/b/archives/2006/03/17/T20_15_31/ [2]: http://iki.fi/tuomov/b/archives/2007/02/02/T18_49_51/ -- Tuomo
