Dear,

We find the suggestions for updating forum description page of NTDOC great.
We don't find it necessary to create again a new forum, because the amount
of none kixtart related stuff isn't so much. Newbies who sees f.e. a general
forum think "we can add all kind of stuff on this board", but is that what
we want. Aren't we trying to keep such OFF-TOPIC limited.

Now we knows Henri is reserving time for a possible implementation of
an upgrade within about two weeks we have the possibility that some pages
and links becomes also up to date.

Some TO_DO things on this forum can be:
  • main page- information update with latest kixtart 4.10 release
    - moderator's note
    - actual links to most recent documentation.
    quote:

  • downloads
    - actualizes help file in "various" section. Current available version is kixhelp410.chm
  • command reference
    - current page contains kixtart information from an old release. possible
    that one member can prepare a new version for this. Our suggestion is that
    users can jump from command reference index to related descriptions.

    our suggestion

    Also it is possible that it is replacing by the CHM version of it.
    Scriptlogic does always a very good job and they are very actual with
    it. It is also a version which is loving by members very much.
    Current format is doing all things over again. Over again with the
    information we find in the manual-doc section.
  • manual index
    - current page doesn't contain latest kixtart 4.10 information.

    Request for other members

    Possible that one member can prepare a new version for this. In a equal
    format.
  • manual-doc
    - points now to the kixtart 3.63 release. Suggestion is to point
    it to the latest one.
  • release notes
    - contains now history list with ends with kixtart 4.00 beta 1. we suggest
    to make this also actual.
    In next reaction we have add an extension for it. We have use as input
    the Scriptlogic's Development Report for
    this update. bstyles we hope you
    doesn't have a problem with using this information for Henri's page. We update
    kixtart versions with "release types" and "version of builds".
  • links
    - it is possible for you to mail Henri useful links. He requires also a short
    of it. At this moment we have only a problem with the site KiXtart Editor.
