Stuart Burnfield replied:
I disagree. To give one example, you could minimise
"skips nd jump-to's" by combining concepts,
definitions and procedures into one long topic. But
that means I need to plough through the lot every
time.
Tony Markos responds:
If the reader need to "plough through the lot [of
documentation] every time", then skips have not been
minimized.
