what better way for me to learn the program than to rewrite the manual. i use the windows operating system, so i would need some input from the linux users on how the program differs for them (screen shots, etc.). i could also edit the other manuals for clearer english and grammar. i hope i don't sound arrogant about the english and grammar thing. my wife and i are helping my nephew and his family to learn english. they are immigrating from germany this month and their english needs improvement (by his own admission). this would be a wonderful opportunity for me to contribute to the project. may i? regards, dwain
