Does Foobar come with a user's manual? Options

[reboot]

I want to give Foobar a try for converting a bunch of wav files to FLAC, but after reading the FAQs and other sections it appears that one must be a programmer to use it. From what I read it seems that I will have to learn code so I can set up command lines and switches and rename exe files and do basic re-programming just to do the simple task of converting wav to FLAC. I have to ask, does Foobar come with a manual or do I have to come to the forums for every little thing I want to do right down to the simplest task? I thought I could just learn the program itself, which I could do in my sleep, not re-write the thing before I even start it up. Isn't it supposed to work right out of the box after one has learned how to use it?
