Hello Richard,
Yes, I have read the entire User Guide. But I cannot remember everything I've read. When programming, I mostly look in the Dictionary for finding how to do things. It is my STRONG opinion that LC should make the Dictionary editable for each user. In other words, I should be able to add my own notes to MY Dictionary, whether I type those notes in directly, or copy/paste them from these emails in the user list or from the User Guide. Then I would have MY PERSONAL notes all in one handy place - my personal copy of the Dictionary. That feature would be VERY helpful to me and I suspect to other LC programmers as well.
Of course I would want to port that Dictionary to future versions of LC.
Thanks for listening,
Larry
P.S. It is pretty much impossible for ANY User Guide/Dictionary to be "complete" because there are too many different scenarios in programming to cover every possible contingency. That is precisely why being able to add PERSONAL NOTES would be so helpful.

What really BUGS me about LiveCode is that the documentation (example, wait
with messages) is SO sketchy, that you cannot figure out how to use it.

The docs team at RunRev is working on a rewrite of the User Guide, and part of my role as Community Manager is to help provide feedback from the community to inform their efforts.

How much of the existing User Guide have you read, and did you find anything in it that was inaccurate or incomplete?
