would this not be a better question for the framemaker user's group? how
does this relate to technical writing besides the use of a tool? it is more
of a tool question, right? Excuse me if I am being picky here, I just get
tired of hitting the delete key for every single tool related question.
IMHO, tool-related questions should be directed to lists that are dedicated
to that tool. I joined this list for conversation involving technical
communications, not tools, and it seems to have migrated more to getting
answers for how to use a tool, not for the process and theory of writing.
Perhaps if I don't like the types of topics, I should leave the list, right.
I will admit that tools are a huge part of our job, but that is why there
are list servs dedicated to those tools, right?
let the flames begin.
