I guess I should have said I found it easy to learn.  Compared to some 
other software programs (ie adobe photoshop, dreamweaver, etc) I did find 
it very easy to learn.  For basic use as an editor instead of SEU, I 
didn't find it that difficult to use.  Now as far as using it for 
webfacing, etc, then the learning curve goes higher.  Basically, as a 
replacement for SEU, I just installed it (that was the hardest part), and 
started using it.  Albeit the learning curve might be higher for some 
people, but in retrospect I think as long as you read the manual you 
should be fine.  Not to mention, join the WDSCi list.  That was the 
biggest part of learning a lot about the product.  I was up and running in 
about a week.  Haven't looked back either.

Wha-wha-what? 
WDSCi is far from intuitive.  Especially initial setup.  I think it's a
great tool and I'm glad I was introduced to it, but for a shop that
doesn't use it and wants to use it... I don't think the word 'easy'
would come to mind in that transition.

IMO anyway.

Yep,
anyone not using WDSC nowadays doesn't realize what they are missing.
It's free, it's easy to learn, it also has an undo feature which is
sooooooo kewl cause you can start changing code, and press undo if you
make a mistake instead of having to remember what was there, or going
back to your last save.  It can sing, it can dance.... lol.  It's a
great editor though.  Between the instant help for the BIF's, and the
online documentation, it's the best thing since sliced bread.  And it
can code Java, webfacing, html, all in the one.
To use anything else... would be uncivilized lol.

Stop using SEU and start using WDSC and see your comments are a
different 
color works for me.
