I beg to differ! How many software products/code libraries do you know 
of which don't even have documentation. Poor Xavier and his TAOO project 
is a great example, while he has told us some great ideas-- w/out *good* 
documentation, it's really hard to follow... (no disrespect intended, X, 
I still love you;-).

In fact, without good documentation, much software is rendered unusable. 
A case might even be made that without the books authored by the '3 
Dans,' Hypercard may have never been adopted so widely.

best,

Chipp
