It doesn't sound as if you are a 'Dummy' at all;
surely a 'Dummy' wouldn't know what Globals
and Custom Properties are. Or, putting it
another way, I know at least one person
[err, myself] who has done many things without
ever having used either of the above.
I don't think either you, or many other people,
really need a "Rev for Dummies" book.
"good intermediate tutorial"
betrayed you :)
I do think what is needed is a
"Rev for people carrying all sorts of confusing baggage over from
other programming languages and/or environments" book.
A "Best Practices" book sounds a bit clunky; surely we ALL need a
few pages on best practices - a list containing guidelines.

Can someone point me to a "Best Practices" or good itermediate tutorial
on programming in Rev. I've been able to do quite a bit and can use
the dictionary to learn how to use the language, but I'm having trouble
understanding how most people use Globals, Custom Properties, etc.
I've read pro and cons on using globals. I've tried to write functions
and pass params around to avoid them (which I think is best), but then
there are times a global seems to be a better idea... OR would a Custom
Property be better? I just don't know how others would do it. I've
looked through a lot of examples and it seems it is all over the board!
I know it isn't written in stone (and really a personal preference),
but has someone put together a "Best Practices" document?
We really need a Rev for Dummies book!
