Another Doc Thought

It may not be all that obvious but one of the reasons there's not
better documentation on SOME of the things in the Rev IDE is because
someone knows they're going to change in an upcoming revision and
doesn't want to spend gobs of time documenting something that will
soon be obsolete.
I KNOW that's the case about at least one aspect of things because
the RR folks were kind enough to steer me away from a project I
thought of a while back by warning me that it would be changing in an
upcoming release.
Already my first book is, while not obsolete, at least a little aged
because of IDE UI changes that took place between its release and the
2.6 product.
That's one reason I hate to write printed books these days. An eBook
can be published and then updated as needed one time at no production
cost.
