At one time there were 4 manuals and 2 of them contained almost the same content. After years of work I put the stuff needed for a newbee to get started into the Getting Started Manual pdf and the stuff needed to USE LinuxCNC in the User Manual pdf and the stuff needed to integrate LinuxCNC into the Integrators Manual pdf that left the HAL tutorial which fluctuated a bit but is/was for using HAL standalone and last but not least the developer information which is in the Developer Manual.
And then there is the secret man pages that only Linux Guru's know about and thanks to Jeff's magic are included in the HTML documents. On the bright side the entire manual is in HTML from start to finish including the secret man pages this way you get the manual any way you want. What did I miss?
