Re: [Strasheela-devel] new tutorial arrangement

[Torsten A. <tor...@gm...>]

Hm. I am still not quite convinced with these terms and don't like to  
make them permanent by incorporating them in the XML format. Perhaps  
in the tut-files we simply use the common headings level chapter -  
section - subsection, and we delay the decision how we call them in  
the text.

Anyway, I will probably not start changing the code of the Strasheela  
application before begin January anyway...

Best,
Torsten
