Maybe it's my fault.  I mentioned that "other editor".
I was merely pointing it's lack of user feedback and
making an analogy with sam, which simiarly is low
on user feedback.  At least for a newbie on first startup.

I also think that typically things like sam are 
demonstrated to others and not picked up cold from manuals.

For those of us who are making the leap alone it
would be tremendously useful to see a little video
or animated movie.

Care to make one?

ps. promise i won't mention that other editor again.
