I did read the docs I did. 

The fact that they formatted and printed so well is what sold me. I've tried SO,
Koffice, Word Perfect, Maxwell, Abiword, etc. Thye either act just like a Word 
Processor, or crash.
Which is I guess, acting like a Word Processor.....

In any event I was in search of something to write several technical docs, specs, for 
my development
team including style guides for programmers and designers, network overviews for the 
sysadmin, procedure
guides, etc. I'd like to redo my resume as well ;^)

I read the intro, overview, tutorial, and user guide, compliments to all. I went to 
CTAN to look up a 
sample resume for practice to and use with the tutorial and downloaded several. I am 
having a problem
importing them and I'm not sure that I am not doing something wrong. Follows is a 
script from the term
window while attempting an import.

Can anyone give me clue as to what is going wrong with relyx, or am I doing  the 
completely wrong thing
here. The files I downloaded did not come with 'res.layout' as the errors indicate.

Thanks much,

Dave
