 sadly, no. it's been on my TODO list forever. what's worse, there are
 a lot of undocumented features that aren't obvious from the user
 interface. among them:

  - using arrow keys to move placed widgets or change packing order
  - using <SHIFT> with arrow keys to resize widgets
  - naming a function "fred:<function_name>" causes it to be saved
    with any compound named "fred". inserting the compound in a new
    application also inserts the function. (came up this week, in fact)
  - To attach a scrollbar to a scrollable widget (listbox, text, etc), first
    select the scrollbar with a single left click then shift-click the target
    widget.
  - Right-clicking gives you the "Option" menu. 

 hey, look, I started a FAQ!

 some of these are on the web site hidden in the "Hints & Tips" section
 of the "installation" guide.
