If it is written in troff/*, then definitely as an additional 'ion3tutorial' man page. One option might be to use markdown, which generates HTML. That's what the Ion README, the site, etc. are written in these days. You can obviously turn that into a text file with e.g. lynx -dump, and maybe into PDF too in some automated way. The sucky thing is the extra dependencies, if it's included in the Ion distribution. (I do not like ReST etc.; markdown seems to be the only one of these ASCII markup language with at least a bit of moderation on the amount of special syntax.) But maybe having it as a man page would be better... But, no, Mod1+F1 should not be changed from displaying the reference man page. F12 -> 'tutorial' should suffice -- and displaying this tutorial and how to get to it in the welcome message. -- Tuomo
