When I added the glossary to the Guide several years back, I thought that 
creating links from the first occurrence of a term to its glossary entry 
would be helpful, but I didn't have the gumption to pore through to locate 
said first occurrence and create the links.  
  
  
  
  
  Of course, that wouldn't necessarily help those people who are not 
reading cover to cover, as you note. Linking every occurrence in the docs 
to their glossary entries would be disruptive to most, though. Perhaps just 
all instances in the Basics, though.  
  
  
  
  
  I have given up the mantle of documentarian, so the insertion of links 
will have to depend on someone else.  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Thanks John, 
  
  
  
  
  i have to admit to not having read the Guide in full for a long time 
  
  now. 
  
  If not up front, perhaps links to the glossary definitions from the 
  
  basics section.  
  
  I think Victor's comment has some value as most people are unlikely to 
  
  do a cover to cover read, even when starting out.  
  
  I certainly didn't, I just went in looking for information about how to 
  
  do specific tasks.  
  
  That may have been because I was doing a masters in accounting at the 
  
  time and I was using GnuCash to do the accounting exercises and thesis 
  
  work. 
  
  Cheers
