But, Jim, YouTube is the staple of the newbies. If it isn't on YoTube or
can't be tested, it doesn't exist......??

Very true I prefer a paper copy also for reference material. So many

I agree totally, the document is exceptionally well written and
illustrated. I will be making a paper copy for reference, somehow it
registers better that way.

And this is why I'm not so wild about videos as "reference material". A
video is great for a demonstration of how to do something. I just
disassembled and regreased my Kitchenaid mixer, and frankly, seeing
someone else do it made it a lot easier. The written instructions say
something like "apply sufficient grease" - seeing someone do it tells
you a lot more. But a video to tell me how to install software, entirely
from the command line? 1 page of cut and paste from the screen would
have met the need, I didn't need to hear someone talking about "now I'm
entering the sudo pip install numpy command" and watching them type on
the screen.
