It occurs to me while reading the top 10 for MS Word that all of the
quirks and problems associated with Word can be eliminated by switching
to FrameMaker.
Also, it's ridiculous to tell a tech writer to avoid excessive use of
bullets! Bullets are one of the most necessary and useful ways to
write meaningful information that is user-friendly. If this is a real
problem, then the writer obviously needs a better program.
