hello,

This weekend I read the User guide front to back. I hadn't done that
since 6.2 or thereabouts...

I have one request for improvement:

In the CREATE DATABASE chapter it may be usefull to include the options
for LATIN1 etc. I was a bit surprized that they weren't there seeing the
international following of the software. For a newcomer this could save
a certain number of hours of headscratching when the accentuated
characters don't show up...

If I was to rate the manual I would say "better than many manuals for
shrinkwrap software but loses steam towards the end".

Cheers

Tony Grant
