Hi, I tried to follow along the documentation, but I found some stumbling blocks

1- I tried to save an image with the regexp vocabulary already loaded,
like suggested here:

http://docs.factorcode.org/content/article-cookbook-scripts.html

but when loading factor again, the vocabulary still has to be loaded manually

2- I tried to use add-vocab-root as explained here:

http://docs.factorcode.org/content/article-add-vocab-roots.html

to load some code from outside the work/ directory, but the listener
is unable to find it

3- I modified the palindrome code from the "Your First Program" to
have a dummy word, and added that as the MAIN word, but when trying to
use the deploy-tool, it gets stuck after

"Loading resource:basis/cpu/x86/sse/sse.factor"

4- I modified the grep code from
http://docs.factorcode.org/content/article-cookbook-scripts.html

to put the code inside a grep word, and added that as the MAIN... I
put it inside work/grep/grep.factor, but when trying to do `"grep"
run` in the listener, it's unable to find it... so apparently, the
scaffold-work tool does something else that I'm missing



Overall, I started first with the Cookbook and then with the "Your
First Program" tutorial, since they were listed in this order inside
http://concatenative.org/wiki/view/Factor/Learning

but the tutorial seems to be way gentler than the cookbook... maybe
just because the latter is out-of-date according to the 0.96 release.

So I'd suggest, to help newcomers, to put more emphasis on the
tutorial rather than to the cookbook
