I'd also like to thank Uwe and Stefan: We are using the german version
of the OpenJump and PostGIS tutorial for quite a while, now, and we are
very happy with them! (Thanks for the translation, Stefan!)
In PIROL we have a template for PlugIn documentations (I have to admit,
it didn't lead to a full documentation coverage and what we have is
german only, though). I think, our form is a bit outdated and quite
focussed on PIROL stuff, but there is one thing in it which I think
would be good to have in a general form (maybe it's not a new idea, but
...):
There are "checkboxes" (- a textual version of checkboxes) in it for
standard things to tell the user, like "does the plugin need features to
be selected?", "does it need layers to be selected", "is a fence
needed?", "will a fence have any effect (even if it is not required)?", ...
The good thing about such checkboxes (or standardized inputs like "how
many features have to be selected") is that it speeds up writing a
documentation ("yes, no, no, 3" - half way through) and the user can -
once he got used to the template's layout - very quickly see, what is at
least required to use a plugIn.
Best regards
Ole
