Hi again,
Ok, I've added a handful of links. I found several more tutorials,
but keeping the outside/unofficial links to a minimum, I ended the list with
a hint to search the internet for more. It will look a lot better when the
actual links are made, of course.
Input from the community welcomed and appreciated.
All best,
brynn
