That's true. However, IMO, man pages are good for reference but not good
for first-time learning. A quick tutorial with a couple of simple code
examples might be nice. I didn't have too much trouble with the man pages,
but I *did* have trouble trusting my code for a while, with no examples to
go on.

About the HOWTO, well, I'll see how CVS likes me, and if it likes me
enough, then I'll make the changes directly. :)
