The summary says it all!  I do hope that the DESKTOP.INF file format
will be documented.  As well as all those nice new features of Rainbow
TOS!  

It is amazing that I had to learn about the ordinary utility (yes GEM
does use it!) of the right mouse button -- e.g., double clicking in some
other than the topmost window to execute, etc. -- from on of the
on-line magazines of ill repute: ST-Report or ST.zmagazine.  Not my
documentation!

I'm hoping... for good user documentation!  Not having to become a
developer just to get some decent documentation.
