Version: 2.0 Destroyer (using KDE 3.5.3, Kubuntu Package 4:3.5.3-0ubuntu0.1 dapper)

Well, this is not a real bugreport, but somehow I feel I want this to be documented...
Adept improved a lot in the last year, but the version in Dapper is missing one seriously important thing: Documentation!

There is not a single QWhatThis I found
... no QToolTip
... no man-page
... no manual
... the homepage of the author is not giving any information
... http://web.ekhis.org/adept.html is dead

I installed Dapper on the computers of two others, both are users and have no clue about things like "apt", "shell" and so on. The didn't understand the concept of Adept at all and finally gave up because they found no documentation whatsoever. This if for me a showstopper-bug, nothing less.
There is no "usability"-section in this bugtracker, this is why I filed it as a wish... Adding tooltips on the 20 most important widgets would help *a lot*.
