Hmmmm, it's funny - people always tell me this, but I really enjoy writing
the docs for the stuff I've implemented.  I feel like writing help files
is the time when you're all done implementing all your cool features,
and now you get to brag about them. :)

And especially if you're a hobbiest doing a for-fun type project, there's
nothing to keep you from having fun with the docs.  I've always liked the
stock circlemud help page for 'wield': I believe it reads, "When you get
tired of bashing monsters with your fists, you might try wielding a weapon."
:)
