Ah. Given that Michael Mauch had previously pointed out where it *was*
documented (in a rather beware-of-the-leopardish place) I thought you
were saying the opposite (`the docs are somewhere obvious, idiot').

Certainly I have to resort to UTSL a *lot* with GNOME, but I've used
Windows: I'm used to fine details of `user-friendly' systems being
totally undocumented.

(Besides, hell, this is free software, where only HOWTO authors and the
GNU Project bother to actually document anything at all, and the latter
uses a silly license.)
