As someone who went through this some time back
(about 18 months ago), I was drawn into it via some very
simple examples, then Paul P's great intro.

I started to delve deeper, and went downhill fast learning
scheme, reading the spec, anything else etc. Thats where
I had to decide on the investment.
Fortunately, I found the investment sufficiently rewarding,
fairly quickly.
(Anything less than scheme I now find a bit 'dirty' :-)

My point is that the first couple of sessions with DSSSL were
very rewarding, and were enough to get me hooked.
It might work for others?

A simplepage sequence,
a few make paragraphs etc
and hey presto I had RTF output.
 Instant gratification.

That could be used as the 'bait' in a selling exercise?
