I wasn't expecting this to be a tension-free exercise, especially having followed some other recent threads with interest. Nor am I going to deflate if an expanded cheatsheet doesn't materialize or doesn't attract any interest. I'm not especially tough-skinned, but I have some time on my hands and the challenge appeals to me. Equally, however, I don't feel inclined, at least at present, to dive into what for me would be the LilySwamp of Texinfo, Lilydev and git. What I would like to attempt, for my part, is to make some contribution from the perspective of a (comparative but not utter beginner) user of the non-programmer variety, and it seems to me that expanding and improving the content of a cheatsheet might be both useful and within my capacity to achieve. While Graham and David may not see eye-to-eye on some questions of approach and how best to manage user contributions, I don't feel discouraged by what either of them has said so far as my working on such a task is concerned, so I intend to just do it, keeping my aims fairly modest, and see what the reaction is, if any, to the result. I don't think I need any technical mentoring at this stage, although I'll definitely be pleased to get feedback -- from anyone -- on drafts. Cheers, Philip
I'd be willing to give you what help I can, Philip. My doc skills are rusty but I can usually get changes done, and if we get stumped, I can probably point you in a useful direction. Most of my help will likely be encouraging emails, but by the sound of your input so far, you probably won't need much more.
