I can only speak for myself of course, building upon the experience of
having taught more than several hundred Pd beginners in university
courses.
Noted. I also do have teaching experience by the way. My efforts in working with the documentation is basically motivated by my teaching experience and dealing with newcomers as well.
Darn, I had hoped to raise some awareness for less distraction in help
patches by kind of refraining from using colors except for the help
patches that demonstrate how to set and use colors.
Ok, I can follow and agree to the idea that some things might be more of a distraction than anything helpful. On the other hand, I am sincerely sorry but I cannot honestly see this particular thing as a real distraction. It's just my opinion though, and I don't mean it to supersede the opinion of others.
And sorry for standing my ground here, but this took time and effort and would take more to revert it back, so I would really like to follow through before doing anything. Please take that into consideration as well as there's this underlining implication. I'm not saying this cannot be reversed because it takes time, but understand that it's not effortless so I think there should be a strong case against it. Hence, please be clear how you feel about this, if it's just something one "shouldn't complain" or if it's something we have to better consider.
Thank you for the discussion,
Peter
