This is a list (a rather long list) of things which still need work in this manual:
Write "What parts of this guide should I read?"
Finish Tutorial.-- First pass done --
Write Working with Frames -- section merged into other areas
Write "Character Formatting Toolbars"
Write Kword Options -- not coded yet
Organize "Detailed Guides" into subjects...Then write the dang things - in progress
Write Answers to Questions in Q and A
Add to Glossary where needed. Some terms are undefined. Most are poorly defined.
Write "Using tab stops" - in progress
If Open template dialog continues to not need an ok, rework tutorial.
Organize "Keyboard shortcuts" into subjects, then organize table by subject
KWord now uses different open/save dialogs. Review all sections relating to this.
Just before release of KOffice.......
Complete section on authors.....
Write a section for each of the inport/export filters (ASCII, HTML, Word97, etc).
Check all screenshots for new features, differnt looks
I want to make this very clear. This is a first draft (of many). My initial goal, is to get a good start on every section of this documentation. After this first draft is complete, I will rework each section again for more clairity/completeness.
I would be very interested in any part of KWord that people find particularly difficult or confusing. You can either write me directly, or post your comments on the koffice mailing list (which I faithfully read). These comments will help me focus the documentation better.
You may also notice (if you are reading this closely at all), that sections of this guide will often end abruptly with "STUFF". This is a marker to remind myself that more needs to be added, or the section needs to be worked on again.
If anyone wants to help me write this monster, I will erect a temple in your honor. Please drop me a note and let me know what you would like to work on.
Thanks
