[rt-users] How to work with Statistics3

[Kelly F. Hickel]

OK, my bad ( a little ).

In trying to debug the graphics stuff, I removed the $m->abort() from
the top of the file.  This appears to be required to make mason stop
processing the rest of the file, because if it does, html will be
produced, even if that's the end of the directives.  When I put the
abort back in, I get a png file with an initial blank line, which makes
it unreadable.

So, the upshot seems to be that the RTFM that was put out last night
still didn't fix the blank line problem for me.  I'm going to try
uninstalling RTFM and reinstalling the release from last night.
