Documentation patches should go to the thg-dev mailing list, but if they arrived here I don't think there would be any complaints. I wrote 90% of the existing docs, so feel free to ask questions as you need. The documents are built with Sphinx, which is a Python based like the rest of TortoiseHg and Mercurial. If you're working on Windows you have to install Python (2.7.3 recommended), then setuptools, then run "Python27\Scripts\easy_install sphinx". Once everything is installed you run "Build html" from within the doc/source folder of the repo, which generates a build\html folder with the HTML docs. -- Steve Borho ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Got visibility?
