TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
In 1995, Microsoft released version 5.0 of their documentation style
guide. It only specified standard terms for the GUI and phrases like
"click the File menu then click Open," rather than the Apple standard of
"choose Open from the File menu."
Is there a more recent version?
