This is the one and only Director FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) as written by the witty Matt Caldwell. Note that this version was written shortly before the release of Director 5.0; regardless the information, tips, and handlers here are still of high value even going into the era of Director 6.0.

"Lingo in A Nutshell" Author Bruce Epstein maintains a Director 7 FAQ, as does MediaMacros, and Warren "the Howdy Man" Okrassa has a FAQ on the nightwares site as well. Likely you can find useful information from Macromedia's Director Support Center

If you can interpret this pseudo Lingo, you'll understand that there are sections still to be written, new sections added, and old sections updated. This is a monumental task that no sane single individual would undertake, especially for no monetary compensation.

If you would like to see the FAQversion = 1.0, than write to Matt, give him a "jolly good show" and then bribe him to continue writing!

And please do not contact Director Web about the content of the FAQ! We just slapped the HTML together ;-)
