Thanks for the kind words, Tres.
I like the idea of offline help (as against online help, which needs
internet connection at all times).
I think the current pdf file can be used as context-sensitive help, without
needing any change.
(The user has to download the pdf and place it in the installation folder of
LMMS.)
We will also need to place a help button on all screens (typically, a small
"?" button is used).
When the user clicks on that "?" button, the relevant "named destination" in
the pdf can be opened.
I can insert more bookmarks in the pdf, if so desired by the UI designers.
***
I would like everyone's help in finishing the blank parts (especially in
plugins.)
When I Googled for tis description, I came across some XML files and even
some code with comments.
But the description is too sparse/cryptic to be useful.
Therefore a coder/musician with experience could help out here.
If required, I will list out the page numbers where I need information.
Or better still, a separate "fill-in-these-blanks" document that you all can
try and fill up.
Any more ideas are welcome.
Thanks in advance.
