This
page and its contents are a work in progress. These are the guides that
are complete, more or less.
(For a more up-to-date status report, see the Status/To Do page.)
Questions or comments about the pages or the guides may be directed
to insectoid (at) budwin (dot) net; please
put IWP: in the subject line. I do appreciate the feedback,
folks, both good and bad. However, any spam mail will be subject to
immediate de-resolution!
Notes about file formats:
TXT — Plain-text, and meant to be viewed in a monospace (fixed-width) font, preferably with Unicode support. (Courier New and Lucida Console are examples.)
ODT — These documents are all in OpenOffice Writer (.odt) format. If you don't have OpenOffice, go to openoffice.org—it's free, and can read and save (most) Microsoft Office documents.
HTML — These guides are taken either from existing TXT or ODT documents and re-worked into web pages, so that they are more universally compatible.
