Re: Is it polite to point web browsers?

[Chris Borokowski <athloi -at- yahoo -dot- com>]

There's always the option to define terms and
generalized procedures at the beginning of a manual.
At that point, detail can be added to the idea of
"going" to a website, but if it's done each time in
the doc... most of them will fall asleep over the
manual :)
