Is there a standard manual that provides information to the end-user on the use of the various FCKeditor features, or will I have to write one myself to give my users a basic "how to guide"?

RE: End user documentation
I had a search on google for this. These are the results I found interesting, but I guess you'll have to write FCKspecific instructions yourself... Should you do this, please share them!

- http://www.mozilla.org/editor/midas-spec.html
- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WYSIWYG
- You could use the openOffice docs as a guide when writing FCKmanuals http://documentation.openoffice.org/man ... _draft.pdf
and http://opensource.mimos.my/download/app ... Writer.pdf both available on http://documentation.openoffice.org/manuals/index.html. I'm not sure if both manuals differ in documenting the writer, but I've seen some very basic and clear explanation in user_guide2_draft.pdf: e.g. 'Selecting and Deleting Text' on page 81.
- Hmm maybe you won't have to write one yourself after all. Here is one you could ask to use: http://modxcms.com/editor-wysiwyg.html
- Here's another nice one: http://eduref.org/~nsdl/QABuilder/ExpertManual.pdf page 69 (Appendix B: The Text Editor) But the document is copyrighted "Copyright © 2005 by National Science Digital Library" An address is mentioned below the copyright notification in the document on page 2. You could try and mail him to ask if you can use it.
Thanks in advance
