Downloadable Manual

[animal]

I asked vb.com and they said no but...
I think there should be a downloadable manual so I could print it out and study how to work on this GREAT bbs offline.

Well ... I would like something like that so I knew the interaction between files a little better when screwing around with the forum.

Then again - If I was writing, hacking or looking at code I would be on my pc and likely on the net and could pop into the hacking forum to ask should I get stuck somewhere =)

Mark - Isn't that just a really big relationship diagram?

But my problem is for the "manual" it is only available as web pages. NOT downloadable (unless I am missing something).

If you were so inclined you could just find the part of the manual you wanted and simply print if off.

The first thing I was refering to would show table fields with lines drawn from table to table to show the relationships between DB tables. See attachment for example.

I did a google for flow chart. I'm not good with explaining stuff, so I found a picture illustration! woohoo!

I realize that but I just wanted THE WHOLE MANUAL in printed form without having to go to EVERY web page and print them.

[Dalius]

Don't think it will be released, just copy the stuff you need to Word and print it?
