Hi All, I'm fairly new to the mailing list but have noticed that the lack of a manual is a frequent source of comments. I would agree that an up-to-date manual is a glaring omission from a commercial application however I can see how it would happen. Many have commented that a manual would be useful for retaining new users and how this would have a positive impact on the long term program development. So, between us I'm sure that we can collaborate on a simple manual that tells people where things are and how to get up and running. Let CTM distribute this as a PDF with the application. Alternatively, adopt something like FAQ-o-Matic and let people contribute the answers there.
Any takers, any interest? James On Thu, 22 May 2003 08:25:44 -0700, Barbara Needham wrote: >C. A. Niemiec on 5/22/03 said > >>You learn something new every day.
