: In what way do you think it needs to be more specific? Describing what mouse
: buttons to click on what menus to perform actions like "copy"?
: Those are going to vary across different people's setups.
: I basically tell people, "click this link, then click that link, then
: put all the files together in a folder and double-click this file".
: Without telling people which mouse button to use and where to find the
: "new folder" command, how much more specific can I be?
For M1 you tell the prospective user to download M1A1. That might be confusing...I know that when I first heard M1A1 I didn't have a clue what it meant. Same as for SDL, you could explain what that stands for, or at least provide a link to something that explains it.
You also don't add the nitty gritty specifics, like instead of saying download "such and such" file and unzip; you might want to give bigger step-by-step instructions, maybe with numbers or bullets.
And maybe tell the person what Marathon ISN'T. Such as, it's not a ROM, it isn't JUST for one OS, etc...
