Well, after wasting a little bit of time and being relatively unimpressed by the [very few] WYSIWYG editors that [presumably] support the DocBook format, I finally decided to simply edit the DocBook files manually using good ol' fashioned Kwrite. It brought back good ol' memories of my old HTML days. ^__^
The only problem was that I still couldn't figure out how to actually READ the DocBook files using a standalone application that wasn't KHelpCenter. Not having luck with that, I ended up making /usr/share/doc/kde/HTML/en/khelpcenter read-write, backing the original contents up somewhere, and then making all the new changes directly to the files. That way, i could follow my changes regularly by swapping back and forth between pages in KHelpCenter -- very crude, but got the job done. ;) ---- I started with the KDE Viisual Dictionary as promised and for the most part modernized all the example screenshots. However, I also did some edits to the introductory text and presentation as well, since my goal (now that I know what I can do) is to MERGE the Quick Start Guide with the Visual Guide, making it a Visual Quick Start Guide of sorts that more-or-less fulfills the original goal of creating a graphical tour of KDE. For the moment, please review my work on the Visual Dictionary: http://pigux.com/kde4/documentation/visualguide_2009-0927.zip Thanks! --Arturo "C-quel" Silva
