Also, with the new standard library, probably some new things should be addressed in the manual. Is there someone who would want to help in this area? -- Jeremy Cowgar http://jeremy.cowgar.com

Currently, in the source .htx files for the manuals, there are many places that include styled tags. I would love to get rid of all styled tags and use a stylesheet for all styling. Font tags setting size and color are all through the system, others setting face type, etc... These should all be changed into div's or span's with an appropriate class descriptor. -- Jeremy Cowgar http://jeremy.cowgar.com
