Did/does releasing the beta help with the docs?
On one hand it helps highlight shortfalls. On the other, so many people are trying so many things with the beta it could be an avalanche of feedback.
From the people I see posting there's quite a few talented coders who can work out the commands or workaround anything that seems to be missing. I AM worried about those people who will choose BlitzMax without programming experience (either blitz related or not).
Either they won't get past playing with any demo release or they'll buy it and be unhappy.
On yet another hand (that's 3 hands I think ;) maybe the sales of Bmx to experienced programmers/blitzers is enough.... maybe?
