Hi,
Quoting Dave Herman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Prompted by setting up simple account tree for testing and several
questions here and on the user list, I started to review
the GnuCash User Guide. While I am not a "tech writer", I could
assist by updating some of the screen shots and adding
some examples. I expect there are many others "readers" who could
contribute examples or just FAQs with answers.
It, the User Guide does need to be updated, which raised a couple of
what are probably very basic questions.
Indeed, the guide needs to get updated for the upcoming 2.0 release.
I am able to create an updated HTML User Guide by doing a make in
the gnucash-doc-svn directory, how do I generate
the PDF files?
I'm afraid I don't know offhand.
Are the existing screen shots reasonably stable?
What do you mean by "reasonably stable?" I think we probably need a
completely
new set of screen shots for the 2.0 release.
Is there a list of "standard" Names - GnuCash/GNUCash/GNUcash ?
GnuCash seems to be most accepted correct ?
Yea, we should be using GnuCash.
How should updates be feedback ? svn -diff only resulted in errors.
Would a tarball of a chapter and associated image fies
be the preferred method?
What kind of errors do you get? It's "svn diff", not "svn -diff". You
should send a diff, not whole files.
any suggestions or recommendations?
Please! Go for it!
Dave
P.S. I started on the chapter on Investments (Chapter 8). Sales for
gains & loss seem to be an issue.
I'm hoping Jon will pipe up soon... But yes, please.. Help with docs!
