Writing for online
------------------
Isn't it possible that as online documentation is refined, some of those
refinements may translate to and improve paper documentation?
Grammar guides, dictionaries, etc.
-------------------------------------
My grammar guide of choice is _The New York Public Library Writer's
Guide to Style and Usage_ (Harper Collins). My copy is copyright 1994;
there is probably a newer edition available.
