This is really good advice! Thanks, Wolter, for finding it. I would also recommend leafing through other manuals on your shelf -- no doubt at some point in the past you or someone you know may have purchased some commercial software. Say what you want, but companies spend a lot of time and money doing research on how to write well, be understandable, etc -- time and money that we will never have. Not every manual is good, but having a physical something on your desk to glance at once in a while may give you some good ideas.
