Good news is: Manuals arrived in Hawaii today. Fantastic! Mahalo nui loa (Thank you very much) from the middle of the Pacific to Jeanne and the RunRev team.
Strange news is: Don't see the online documentation described in the manuals in my version of Revolution... I click for online updates and am told I have the latest version of Revolution. (1.1.1b2) when selecting Rev documentation from the help menu we see the old: Learning revolution Using Revolution Application Reference Finding Help: [and their subsections underneath each one] and not what is stated in the manuals: Encyclopedia Transcript Dictionary How To: Troubleshooting Tutorials Using the Starter Kit etc. What do I need to do? as for the discussion about "hidden" links. Why not make that a preference under the documentation preferences?: to set the link underlines on or off or to colorize the word with very dark, lo contrast, blue (a good suggestion) or go all the way... let the user pick his own color! Maybe today if we are feeling sleepy so we want bright red links! just for fun...(smile... HIG do not cover all conditions) Agreed that most or some significant percentage, of developers probably love colored mark up in their code anyway--I couldn't live without that in BBEdit or GoLive--so, why not here? If you wanted to train a new generation of Revolutionaries (we have volunteer wizards on our "remote" team of collaborators who are just age 13, but who can tear a PC apart and write PERL with their eyes closed, who start drooling when they look at xTalk) then turning on those links turns the documentation into an educational tool of serious dimensions, since, not only is transcript syntax being transmitted, but even core essentials to programming, through the "trivial" words deemed don't warrant hilitation? (new word...) Then, set up a distribution mechanism to "give away for free" starter kits to 10,000 kids around the world, and when they hit age 18 they will all be chomping at the bit to purchase a license! And Rev team can all charter a junket and come visit us here on Kauai. Given that scenario, a strong case could be made that the default should be that those links are checked on from first boot. 2 cents from under a mango tree.
