well novice computer users are reportedly bad, but I do remember a time when beyond basic word processing, anything else looked scary. I very distinctly remember the first out of work thing I did with my computer, also the first time I accessed files from outside my documents or a floppy drive. It was reading Ms word coppies of the 2nd dungeons and dragons rules! That deffinately showed me that computers could do fun things as well, and when i got the internet, I started playing.
Perhaps to reduce enquiries, Jim could considder writing a basic idiots' guide to text file editing, which could be played within the game like the rules of baseball file for those that need it. Of course, there will always be some people who won't get it, but at least the resonable ones who lack the knolidge, but have the ability to ask questions and learn, can go somewhere else for answers other than bothering you Jim. While I appreciate the frustration, I'm not sure reducing the amount of advanced features is a good way of fixing things, ---- after all the advanced users just want more, and the basic users don't learn anything.
