[Screem-devel] Documentation

[Matt C. <mcs...@co...>]

Hey,
I have been really busy lately but I downloaded the lastes cvs and 
compiled it. I noticed the call for documentation. Here is the
scoop, as far as I am concerned. I will not be able to continue doing
writing the documentation for the moment. I will probably hang around 
and finish patching the link view into a usable condition and then 
concentrate on school. So in order to keep the documentation moving. I 
have gone through and split it into 3 seperate documents, a user manual, 
a gui reference and a developer manual. I am attaching them to this 
email in sgml form. I have updated all the things I can quickly find to 
make them gnome 1.4 compliant. The biggest change will be that there is 
no longer a need to compile them into html because nautalis will be 
included with Gnome 1.4. So I am going to trash the current doc makefile 
as well as wipe out the html dir in CVS. I also am going to delete all 
the screen shots in the fig directory because they are too old and need 
to be updated. The new cvs doc dir structure should be:

/doc
/C contains the 3 sgml files in english
/sp the translation dirs containing the same files
....
/figs contains screenshots for ALL sgml files(en,sp)
makefile puts everything where it is suppose to go
topic.dat used in creating the help menu

David I strongly suggest you look over and do the development manual. 
This will be a great help if people want to join the development effort. 
If someone wants to do something small with little writing the GUI 
manual is fairly easy. Most of it is already there. The menu labels need 
updated and new screenshots need to be made.Hopefully I will be able to 
help later on with the docs. I will make the cvs changes tomorrow and 
add these sgml files in.
