	Not that I know of, other than the config files themselves, the
mailing list archives, the AfterStep FAQ (AfterStepDoc on the popup menu), 
and the doc's that come with the tarball/rpm/deb/etc.  If I knew how to do
man pages I'd jump into them - they are *WAY* out of date, and downright
useless; I have been tossing around the idea of doing some sort of HOWTO
for how to do this or that in AS, I'll have to get with Andrew Sullivan
and see where he is on the FAQ so as to not duplicate anything.

[Andrew: if you see this, I'll be lookin' for ya :), or send me a url for
you current FAQ, thnx.]
