I tend to agree. I typically just follow the matching tutorial for
whatever language I'm using and stick to it... but I don't always
understand (like why I need =3D:results output graphics=3D in R vs. just
output). Perhaps you could inquire about a particular header setting,
someone could respond, and you could add the info to Worg somewhere
(something like a "layman's guide to header arguments")?
