ExoLight Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 We could actually use one or two more sets of eyes to help with the copy editing pass. Anyone interested and a quick reader? :) Definitely interested, I'd love to help ! Also, if you ever make a French translation of your manual (you never know, right ?) and need some proof-reading, I could help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AH_Solid_Snake Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 Would the simplest way to get the copy checked by a broader audience not be to soft-release the manual without a marketing push, allow anyone to read it and have some form of issue tracker for posting tweaks / mistakes? Without saying one size fits all with every software company I've worked the easiest way to get a really good acceptance test from our end users was to launch it to a broad chunk of our existing userbase, those that were interested tried the new feature in beta and posted feedback. Others tried and didn't bother with feedback, others didn't even try it. But inevitably we found many more minor (and the odd major :D) bugs as soon as we increased the number of brains and eyes on the problem, in a shorter period, which let us get finished.

Dudikoff Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 (edited) I think he is messing with us all. Pay back for us being little jerks about "this week." I wasn't a jerk (on this point, at least), but I still got suckered. Unfair, but I'll let it slide if I can get an advance copy of the manual. Or a chapter? OK, some snippets will do. ;) Edited February 8, 2019 by Dudikoff i386DX40@42 MHz w/i387 CP, 4 MB RAM (8*512 kB), Trident 8900C 1 MB w/16-bit RAMDAC ISA, Quantum 340 MB UDMA33, SB 16, DOS 6.22 w/QEMM + Win3.11CE, Quickshot 1btn 2axis, Numpad as hat. 2 FPH on a good day, 1 FPH avg.
