hello Daniel,

I do also have spent some hours examining documentation tools like 'doxygen',
'LyX' and others, although the ones you have suggested are very good, i'd say
more interesting than those i did refer. But the sure thing is, that they demand
advanced experience and good usage knowledge to get a good result. and time! and
the most important,  we need well formed/edited texts which is the core material
of any documentation. On the other hand, i do see that into harbour's website
there are already a lot of documentation pages. perhaps some of the topics
there, are outdated/obsolete due to newer implementation/changes/enhancements
and need revision/correction. but this place and this material could be a good
base point to start (re-)working on documentation. I don't know who is
responsible to maintain these pages, but it's time to ask the webmasters (if
anyone of them is reading this thread), in what way somebody (like
you,me,anyone) willing to help in harbours documentation could involve and start
working on. Then we could make a plan about specific things that must be done.

regards,

Pete
