"A Guide for the Unwilling S User" is available at
 http://www.burns-stat.com/pages/Tutor/unwilling_S.pdf
(Or click on Tutorials from the main web page.)

This is an improved version of the document that was put in
the same location a few days ago.  It has dropped the "draft"
status, but I am always interested in suggestions for improvements.

The 8 page document has the aim of allowing a novice user
to get some useful work done fast enough that they don't give up.
This could be a student with an assignment, a worker with a
graph to produce before they go home, or a prospective user of
some specific S functionality.  It applies equally to S-PLUS and R.

It may be redistributed as long as there is no more than a nominal
charge for the media.
