A link which could have been given in the original post, avoiding the need for 
many to waste time before they can even start answering the question...

It's simple, really: providing the information needed up front makes it easier 
to get an answer (and usually quicker). No protocol, just basic self-interest.
The more as those that are best placed to answer, are usually also the most 
solicited.

The best source for the latest version of dt is the manual!

what document would that be?

when one requests help, one is *not* expected to make undue effort upon
those who's help is requested.

why would you expect something written for dt 4.2 to be the "latest" for
dt 3.8?
