I have been given the unenviable task of putting together a
computer conferencing system on very short order (read: to be
in place by January). It's to be used by lawyers for discussion
of the new Ontario Rules of Practice (rules of court procedure).
There will be an item (or note) for each Rule, and lawyers will
post their experiences, summaries of decisions which have been
handed down, new interpretations, etc.
Problem: these people are computer-naive users. I need to
change the input routines so that a limited set of options
is offered at any time, and it is clear what they are (this
may mean redoing some of the input routines). I'll also
have to put together some documentation that covers only the
basic commands; once users are more experienced, they can
graduate to the "real" documentation.
Has anyone addressed these problems for the notesfiles system?
I have notes as distributed with 4.2. It's running on a Perkin-Elmer
3220 (v7).
Thanks.
