    several places in the Guides it says not to contact helpers directly ...

    but since I am new, I am unsure of what method to use to report a typo in a Guide ... do I just make a new thread, or do I in fact attempt to privately contact the author of the Guide/How-To item? Or do I choose a name (Eric, Tim or another) from the ABOUT page and send a note?

    I have found a minor typo in

    Using MGtools
