General Help on this Wiki

Manuals are documentation written by experts or authors for a particular component. The developer manual is available as a PDF tech note, and all user manuals are wiki topics.

Developer Manual

The developer manual describes the nuts and bolts of the software. Users need not read it to be effective with the offline software but it can give insight into how things work instead of just how to work things.

It is a LaTeX document managed in SVN at:

Documentation/OfflineUserManual/

Up to date builds are available from several sources:
