Hai Siep,

How many years of LaTeX experience do you have?

I can't believe the latex docs are better. And consistency across the
(docs of the) many packages??

But could you be a bit more specific about "hard to find my way around
it." Because that is at least true for one person in this world, and if
there is one there are more. So if you can (try to) formulate what kind
of documentation would have helped you, perhaps this situation can be
improved.

Groetjes,

Berend. (-:
