Remember when they actually shipped manuals? And those manuals actually had a lot of labor involved in them?
I recall the Windows 3.1 manual being really thick and like 300 pages. Lot of work. And very descriptive to the point of stupidity. I remember the part that discussed Paint.
Went something like:
"Pencil tool"
"Move your mouse cursor [cursor photo] to the Pencil icon [pencil photo]"
"Click the left button on the mouse"
"Move your mouse cursor [cursor photo] to your desired area on the workboard"
"Click and hold the left button on the mouse and drag the mouse to draw a line"
"Release the left mouse button"
"Brush tool"
"Move your mouse cursor [cursor photo] to the Brush icon [brush photo]"
"Click the left button on the mouse"
"Move your mouse cursor [cursor photo] to your desired area on the workboard"
"Click and hold the left button on the mouse and drag the mouse to draw a line"

"Fill tool" guess what! For pages like that!
