This is a correct expectation. Your checkout command is also completely correct. Do you intend to work on the documentation on a Windows or Linux computer? If a Windows one, you would need some text editor program as well, such as UltraEdit or Notepad++ or similar, or even the editor of an IDE such as MS Visual Studio. On Linux this would be Kate, or GEdit, or Emacs, or similar. Do you have any of those already installed? For any of the somehow weird error messages you quoted below, you can always open the complained file with one of these text editors, and should be able to see some of the "plain text" around the place where the error occurred. > > 2.

Before submitting a patch, you should check whether this error still occurs. In case you didn't find any other solution, you can still submit the patch but notify us of this workaround so that we can remove the workaround before submitting this into SVN.
