[TYPO3] Complicated documentation? No reference guide? Do you know any good documentation?

Well, I never claimed it was for total beginners, but honestly, I don't 
think it's over the head of anyone who's successfully used 
TYPO3/typoscript/html/css to build one or more sites.

Besides that, the first page introduces the language a bit without 
expecting to teach much but generalities...but after that there are 
three (long!) additional pages of (short!) TS-By-Example like how-tos, 
all aiming at the completion of a single project.

However, you did remind me to finally do something I'd previously meant 
to do but which I'd forgotten: add a link to the next section at the 
bottom of each page.

As for 'jargon' and whatnot, if you have specific suggestions, send 
them. I'll try to incorporate them :-)
