Nope. That's not the fix.

I suppose I'm just an idiot for thinking that SSH, being a professional
firm, would put up manual that could be followed literally and produce
results with their software. Apologies that I didn't ignore their junk and
go right to whatever instructions have been distributed on this within the
FS project - but it's generally easier to cook from just one cookbook at a
time. Should it be noted somewhere not to pay any attention to the kind
folks at SSH? Not that I don't appreciate the free trial of their software
... but without good instructions and without its having an option to turn
on detailed diagnostic output to see where their instructions are wrong,
the trial doesn't make them look too brilliant.

I'll be in a better mood once I learn what they've left out and the thing
actually works. People who save an hour of their own time by skipping the
stage of actually trying their own recipe waste hours of many other peoples'
time - people who write bad manuals are much worse than those of us who
don't always read every available manual thoroughly, and should be sent in
the first wave against Iraq.
