:-) Not really, but sort of. In response to everyone's eager requests for printed, or
:PDF, documentation, I wrote a stack that loads most of the Revolution documentation
:into an RTF document. That document can then be opened in Word (or anything else with
:an RTF translator) for printing or conversion to PDF.
Included sections of the documentation (from the main help screen) are:
For New Developers
Using the Starter Kit
Revolution Encyclopedia
Transcript Dictionary
Development Guide
Troubleshooting
Menus
Shortcuts
Glossary
DRAWBACKS:
-- The script is untested.
-- It doesn't grab character formatting, although it does apply basic formatting to
the output text.
-- Everything is in one RTF, with no identification of sections.
NOTES:
-- Rev will grab a lot of memory to process all the data -- be prepared.
-- The resulting RTF doc is over 3mb, so whatever you open it with will need to be
able to handle that.
-- The resulting document has well over 2,000 pages!!
-- Example code should be properly formatted into Courier
The stack can be downloaded from:
http://www.inspiredlogic.com/rev/revrtfer.rev
To use it, just open Revolution, open the stack, and click the button. The three
fields contain the RTF used to generate the document, so you can modify the format of
the output, but be careful.
Regards to all

PS -- I'd love input on how to improve this, but I'm out for the next week and a half.
If you email me, I'll get back to you when I return. gc
