Bug description:
The online manual isn't helpful. It's frame by frame "hint methodology"
disallows users to search, find and immediately scroll to needed information --nor does it permit
users to easily see information leading up to the currently needed data --or following it. The PDF
version is better, and an HTML version should be made available for inspection online.
Please get rid of that slow, clunky slide show. It may be pretty, but only for the few moments it
takes to discover its drawbacks.
