After using the Transputer Development System manual for
two weeks to write Occam code, I give up.  This manual
exemplifies why users reject new technologies because of
poor documentation.

The manual does not provide any examples of how
to create separately compiled procedures,
although the software does provide this facility. It 
also doesn't explain the changes the programmer has to 
make in order to successfully compile a
procedure which works as part of a larger program.

Although I would like to create a toolbox of programs that I could
link together to create new programs,  I've had to fight
the system all the way along. I blame my frustration 
on the poor quality of the documentation, which has hindered
my efforts to gain understanding.
