Funny you should ask that. I had (still have such a diagram. I didn't include
it as your ideas of organization will be different than mine. You know what's
comming... Well OK...

I trimmed off alot of the doors but kept a few for reference purposes. Some of
these might be familiar and some may not. Of course this is very rough and it's
been editied 

But you might find it confusing I know I sure do.

For example. I started collecting frequently sought info (from SBBS online
DOCs) in the REF folder. I also keep the included help text as *.syn(tax) files
(the help you can get with the slash question mark)

And this is by no means the rule but a rough first approximation. just
somethings I added. BUT I know others will have ideas too.
