This directory contains a draft of the user documentation for Gofer.
For convenience, the documentation has been split into a number of files,
one for each chapter and appendix. The complete manual can be rebuilt with
the command cat ch* appx*
The complete manual is 124 pages long!!! You will probably want to be
selective about what you read and, in the interests of all of those poor
trees, selective about what you print -- particularly bearing in mind the
fact that this is only a draft and likely to change! Another point worth
mentioning is that the files are just plain ASCII text files -- they can
be printed out without problem on a dot matrix printer ...
Entries marked with a `+' in the list below are likely to be of most interest
to those who are already familiar with Orwell.
These files may contain many errors; I would be grateful for any corrections
or suggestions!
