Re: [sc-dev] Draft on doc about cross platform issues and the distinctions between GUI/Editor/HID



Actually, I don' think it has to be in the help directory.  I just think it is good if users know that there is such a thing as developer guidelines.   We could always mention that there are such docs somewhere in a Help file. (under Extending SC).

html is terrible in the diffs, yes. (is latex or pdf).  Latex is of course generally beautiful, but  I think it does need to be converted  in a more universal format. There are latex editors for mac (latex itself is a big download),  but  there are decent Linux html editors, too.

I could however, do a latex2html on it, and put the result in the help
directory, and keep the latex original in another folder.

do you mean just an svn directory, or in the Help directory? I think in the
Help directory is good, because it encourages regular users to read it, and
makes it quickly accessible.

Yes, no spaces allowed in path names, obviously ;-)

I think this is a good approach. I wonder if there could be a doc folder
named Developer Guidelines (or is there already such a thing) in the distro.


Seems not.

Anything against adding a dir called:
devdocs
to the svn folder, where things like this could go?

(I don't like spaces in directory names).

sincerely,
