It seems to be a law of Nature that TW tools have poor docs.
Even the quality manuals that manage to escape from time to
time don't stay that way for long -- witness the current Word
Help system, which is certainly no improvement over the Word 6
paper manual, and the pretty good Frame 5.0 User Manual,
which has been progressively embuggered (to use a term I
learned from ABC Radio this morning) by Adobe since they took
it over.
