For about the 15th question in 3 days, all or most of which could be answered with some research, I don't agree that this is too harsh. Sure, one could just ignore it, but I think it's more useful to both answer the question and point out general expectations here.

I agree, but with reservations. If a user doesn't have great English comprehension skills, and manuals are typically technical, then they have a bit of a hill to climb. That doesn't change the fact that the information is in the manual, it just makes it less easy for them to find. Hence the questions about phrases to search for.

My problems stem partly from unfamiliarity with the calculator itself, and partly from unfamiliarity with the fields for which the calculator gets used, i.e. advanced mathematics, UserRPL/SysRPL programming. I at least can read, and hopefully understand the manuals. Sometimes I need a little more assistance, and I'll bet if I can't find it in the manual, someone else will tell me I failed to look in the right place <grin>. Or that I didn't install the right third-party program...
