I've added it to the top of my wish list. (However, I don't want to
keep everyone waiting any longer for the very imminent version 1.3.0,
so it'll probably have to wait until 1.3.1 or so...)

Strange. I can't imagine that my inbox was full, so I have no idea
what went wrong.

I have intentionally NOT included any images in the manual in order to
keep the file size as low as possible. This is important in at least
one practical sense: currently the manual is included in the BC
Manager package itself, which is getting dangerously close to the
Yahoo file limit of 5 MB. Above that, I'll have to split up the zip
file or remove the manual from the package itself.

Apart from that, I'm not quite sure whether images would make the
program less daunting: it might help certain users, but on the other
hand the manual would become a lot longer, which might add to the
dauntedness for other users, so I'd be eager to hear from other
people's experiences and opinions in this respect.

But in any case I of course wouldn't want to discourage you from
contributing to the documenation for BC Manager. I don't quite know
what you have in mind, though - couldn't you write your own "Getting
Started" manual? That would be very cool...

Mark.
