[MacPerl] Just the FAQs, ma'am...

[Rich Morin <rdm@cfcl.com>]

Thanks to all who have sent in comments and suggestions about the Mini-FAQ.
It's nice to know that folks are looking at it!  Also, I apologize for the
double posting.  I had received a note from Matthias, saying that the word
"marketing" (in the first posting) had tripped his SPAM filter.  He did not
say, however, that he had overridden the filter, so I re-sent the message
in edited form.  Sigh...

I would like to make a distinction, in any event, between the document I am
trying to create and a full-blown FAQ.  My effort is geared at developing
something that folks won't mind seeing when they first subscribe and about
once a month (not weekly, perish forbid!) thereafter.  Thus, it needs to be
fairly short, yet point the reader to useful resources.

In reaction to this, I have (a) covered only a few topics and (b) made
heavy use of URLs.  My selection of topics may be in question (feedback is
solicited, as usual), but I think the use of URLs is not.  I simply don't
have room to recapitulate substantial amounts of information in this format.

Fortunately, we have a "real" FAQ (now mentioned in the Mini-FAQ :-).  If
there is something you'd like to see covered in depth, please submit it
for inclusion there (http://www.ptf.com/macperl/depts/MacPerlFAQ.html).
