I sincerely feel that the tutorial should also be included in a single documentation file consisting of UG, extended etc. the reason for this is that you can then cross-link from the tutorial to the parts of the UG explaining a feature in depth. also, you can search the entire document for whatever and find it both in the tutorial context (with links to the UG context) and the UG context.
Finally, I dont see why the tutorial should _not_ be included. Martin On 7/18/06, Steve Harris <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

Additional documentation is available at the LyX Wiki http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/Manuals. [or maybe better http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/Documentation] I think documentation should point to the FAQ and the Latex Visual FAQ. Also a reminder to use the online archives to obtain quick answers to urgent problems without a hint of irritation about answering the same quesion over and over again. Links to archives. The home of how to do things and solve problems. Unfortunately I won't be able to contribute to the documentation project as I like to explain myself fully and in detail. The puny Wiki can't accomodate the size of my masterpieces. Just kidding :-) The developers would have to approve a change of copy to the splash.lyx intro. Consolidation of the help documents could be offered in another format in another location while advertising the Wiki. Perspicuity and Perspicacity, how sublimely pragmatic, Stephen :-)the oxymoron, how's that for credentials?! Ps, A little extra juice for the Wiki, hip, hip,
