Hello,
    we have InterViews 3.1 installed at UMIST on our Sun network. The 
accompanying documentation seems only to include a reference manual. While this
is useful, it is of limited use to someone attempting to learn how to use Inter
Views `from scratch'. I would like to know whether a user manual exists (or something that gives step by instructions on how to use InterViews or possibly a 
tutorial) and if so could we please have a copy?
   Kind regards,
        Roger Smith (Research Assistant).

I share your opinions on the reference manual - learning interviews seems to be 
a matter of learning from example, browsing thru the source code, etc.  I would
assume that the lack of appropriate documentation for new users is a big obstacle
to the further proliferation of Interviews.

In addition to the above documentation question, does anyone know of any 
training courses available on Interviews?  (I have found courses on X windows, but
none on Interviews)
