MAXScript Help is a good reference for programmers knowing other languages, but not very good for beginners. Still it is the best information resource available, and it is getting better. Since Max 5.0, there are a couple of new chapters for new users including "How To" tutorials with detailed explanations and links to relevant topics, (next time around even with illustrations as requested on this forum! :o) a direct access list to all examples in the Help, a guide for casual users how to use ready-made scripts without knowing MAXScript, and the already mentioned FAQ ("MAXScript Questions and Answers") based on threads from this and other forums.
