Yes, please do. Carl can help you get started as a Frog; we
desperately need more people writing patches for such problems.
Perfect, where do I begin? I already know exactly what to change and
where.
Please look at the Contributor's Guide in the docs. From the main
doc page
choose Developer's Resources, then you'll see the Contributor's Guide.
The best way to get started (although it's not the easiest) is to
install
git and pull a copy of the repository from Savannah. Then you can
make the
changes and create a patch. The Contributor's Guide describes how
to do it.
I've gotten this far, and everything is fine.
If I understand this correctly, you're proposing to make changes to
the
docs, rather than the code. Is that right? If so, you should
submit your
patch to Trevor Daniels, rather than to me.
Correct, will do.
Please let me know if you have further questions.
I don't know where to find the files that I would use to make the
change. The Producing a patch and Documentation policy didn't help
much in this regard. Is there somewhere that explains what the files
are? I have the Documentation, and I imagine that what I need is
somewhere in the user folder, but I'd hoped for a structure that
would have the learning manual and then the various sections of the
learning manual, so I can make the change. Regardless of how it's
organized, I just don't see where to find section 2.3.5 of the
Learning Manual. Help?
Thanks,
Carl
