Tammy Van Boening Senior Technical Writer Jeppesen Sanderson, Inc. 303-328-4420 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tammy, The powers that be who want to use Rational SoDA as a documentation tool have been smoking funny weed. Rational SoDA does not, has not, and will not, be able to duplicate or even approach the functionality of Word, much less FrameMaker. In fact Notepad is a more capable text editor than is Rational SoDA. However, it does a bang up job of internal documentation from code snippet comments, and other commented data. It is not, and never has been a documentation tool like Framemaker, Word, or even Notepad. The person or persons who are staking their careers on this are really misinformed, to be very, VERY generous and tactful about it. Unfortunately you have idiots in charge.

RE: OT: Question about Rational SODA tool
I wasn't questioning the FM is dead. I'm just really surprised to see that they'd replace FM with Soda. To me, that's like replacing Eclipse with FM!

Tammy...I completely understood your meaning...but then I'm not looking for every unattributable hint to determine the future of FM. --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > My bad - as a technical writer, I should have been much > more clear - she is being told that Framemaker is going > bye-bye at her organization because the powers that be > insist Rational Soda will do the same thing - not > Framemaker overall going bye-bye.
