- This is a comprehensive guide to writing documents in Amigaguide format.
- Of course, this document, itself, is in Amigaguide format ;-)

-
- There are plenty of examples included and lots of cross referencing.
-
- Differences in the various versions of the amigaguide.library and
- amigaguide.datatype are covered.
-
- Changes In Version 01.03
- ------------------------
-
- * Whoops - Forggot to speell chek!!!! - Sorry about that fokes!!
- No other changes.
-
- Changes In Version 01.02
- ------------------------
-
- * Project became far too large for a single document so I split it into 7
- different disk files. (This, in itself, did not cause any changes in
- context.)
-
- * Rewrote @NEXT & @PREV section to explain how I included these commands
- in the first and last nodes of each section to link them all together
- after splitting the project into 7 disk files.
-
- * Include "Links To Other File Types in Early Amigaguide Versions".
- (Thanks to Christopher Jeffery)
-
- * Following on the above additions, the "SYSTEM" command section has been
- completely rewritten in order to:-
- - emphasise that any program, not just AmigaDOS commands, can be used
- in the SYSTEM argument, and
- - include section on advantages of using RUN in the SYSTEM argument, and
- - generally tidy it up.
-
- * Included note on "Problem With Macros" that include long strings.
- (Thanks to Michael Schulz)
-
- * Rewrote @TOC section without making any changes to context.
-
- * Included a section on the "MAIN Node".
-
- * Added a section to the "Window Size" node to discuss a method of obtaining
- a display window size and position other than the default or that saved
- to the Envarc:Amigaguide/ or Envarc:Multiview/ directories by use of the
- menu item "Setting/Save As Defaults".
