I do NOT LIKE on-line documentation. I much prefer a manual. That way you can have the screen you are working on in front of you and the book beside. If you have any sort of meaningful on-line doc it will fill up the screen with text. A lot of time you might want to try something from the book and it is always much easier to have an uncluttered screen with the book for reference. Also swapping back and forth between your on-screen work and help-text file is annoying since you are unable to see minute details of your work at the same time you are reading the help text. I do not even use the current on-line help, but prefer to go to the reference or some other written source. The most useful thing to have on-line would be page number in the reference manual. I would also like to see more examples of some the less frequently used commands. Judy
