Ok all you first graders,
You need to learn to read this semester, so I want you all to go down
to the library and find a book on grammar, a couple from the 'See
Spot Run" series would also be a good choice, and by all means get a
dictionary --you will need that for the alphabet and to build up your
knowledge of words. Now study these to learn how to read. Don't
worry if it seems hard, I will be here from 8 to 5 for you to ask
questions, and I will almost always know what to say to help your
progress. If I am busy with someone else just take a number and I
will get to you shortly. Once a week we will all come together as a
class to learn how to sound out words.
What is that? Why can't I teach you all at the same time instead of
individually? Well it is because I am so busy answering individual
questions I don't have any time left to organize all the information
I know into a course plan. Hurry up now, don't waste any more of our
time with silly questions, you need to get hunting for information or
you will never learn to read before the semester is up!
Food for thought,
Dennis

Oh dear, oh dear oh dear! What is it with people and the docs? The
docs work perfectly well when you know where to look for
information. That may not always be immediately obvious, but I
think that some don't spend enough time looking at the arrangement
of the information before they claim the docs are too hard, or a
bottleneck.
In Rev it is very easy to experiment with commands to see how they
work. Try it.
In Rev it is fairly easy to guess what a command might be. Just try
it out and see if it works. If it doesn't then type it into the
dictionary filter and see what comes up.
This list is part of the effective documentation of Revolution
(look up "effective" keyword in the dictionary ;-). Ask a question
here and you will generally get a useful answer.
Don't try to tell me that Rev is not good for non-professionals.
This list is full of non-professionals who are making good things
with it.
