newbiedoc is a project, not a document. The project consists of many smaller documents that are small enough and detailed enough to help a newbie get started. | and print it for use as a reference guide for myself and others here | at the office as we look into going to Linux for our desktops as | well as the servers. Do you have a unix machine already? It would be fairly trivial to write a one-line shell script that spools all the postscript documents to the printer. (PS generally prints better than HTML too) Also be aware that newbie-oriented docs aren't going to go into all the details and intricacies of any piece of software. Once you are familiar enough with the software I recommend moving on to more complete, yet less newbie-friendly, documents. -D -- (E)ventually (M)alloc()s (A)ll (C)omputer (S)torage
