Structure of the Wiki
Talking with Matt and Jim, they thought the wiki wasn't well enough structured. The last useful forum post above (msg266190) is a collection of tips and tricks. Where does it fit?
Matt thought manuals were useless except as sources of shortcut keystroke definitions.
Any ideas? Gateley 11:10, 26 February 2007 (CST)
