Re: [Instrumentelem-user] documentation

[Francesco L. <fra...@lu...>]

Hi Teemu, 
    you can have a look on the javadoc
http://instrumentelem.sourceforge.net/doc/ie/index.html

In particular to the class IInstrumentElement
http://instrumentelem.sourceforge.net/doc/ie/org/ie/IInstrumentElement.html

Probably it is not enough but is a starting point,
>From there I encourage you to prepare few "nice question" that I will be
happy to add to the FAQ section. If you want you can also draft an outline
for a guide in our wiki and I will be happy to try to cover the various
sections. What do you think about?

Talk soon, 
Francesco
