Please take a look at the current readme.txt file, that you will find on your system at:

C:\Program Files\SereneScreen\Marine Aquarium 3\readme.txt

It runs 13KB, and about 4 printed pages.

To me, it looks very close to a "user manual" - and all that JohnWho is doing is making it more complete, including the latest features. I'm guessing it will run about 20 pages when he is done.

But anyhow - I'm interested in your opinion about whether he's starting with a classical "readme", or a "user manual", that was shipped (via download) with the software.

If that is what it is becoming, maybe it should be included as such, and a more traditional readme file (concise, focusing on last minute changes, etc.) could also be included.  
Yes, that would be a nice addition. Perhaps someone will volunteer to build that.
