Great. That certainly needs a cleanup. My ideal would be to have a
list of short instructions, and then have footnotes people would go to
when they had a problem with a certain item. Not sure how to do that in
sgml.
If we did it in html, they could click on something when they had a
problem, but html instructions are hard if you don't have a browser.
