I reported a couple of typos but otherwise it looks good to me.
| 1. [LispCourse notes](https://interlisp.org/pub-pdfs/lispcourse/lispcourse.pdf). The notes of a beginner course on the Interlisp environment that goes from the basics of interacting with the system to programming in Lisp. Highly recommended. Skip the sections on printing and the network as modern Medley doesn't fully implement the described functionality. The formatting of the text is partially broken and some sections are missing. | ||
| Items marked with **** are at temporary locations, likely to change. | ||

the google drive URLs aren't stable. Maybe copy the files into the webiste repo and commit to updating them there regularly? I just don't want people to bookmark the google drive files.

I missed the leading sentence on the asterisks marking a temporary location. And, once the website is crawled they'll become part of the site record. I guess we could disable crawling until things settle down. But, I'm not sure that's a great idea.
In any case, we need to find permanent locations. I thought Google URLs were stable - I have a process at work that generates and replaces a document in Google Drive on a regular basis via a GitHub action and I use the URL as a pointer to the current version of the document. So far, its worked flawlessly.

| If you are familiar with Common Lisp, this guide points out some differences. | ||
| 1. [Medley for the Novice](/documentation/Medley-Primer.pdf)**** (also known as Medley Primer). An introductory guide to the basics of Medley such as executing commands, using menus and files, manipulating windows, editing and saving Lisp code, using the development tools, and more. Read it in full. The code in chapter 20 "Free Menus" doesn't work and some illustrations are missing. | ||
| 1. [SEdit — The Lisp Editor](https://drive.google.com/file/d/12LW5zCZauJvC63NRMJhjNv5qJkuuCflb/view?usp=sharing)****. The manual of SEdit, the default Lisp code editor. |

if you approve this PR, I can merge it and run the 'check webiste for
broken external links' again.
