[Scummvm-devel] Brainstorming about ScummVM Manual

[Max Horn]

P.S.: I forgot to mention: The port specific pages should also be  
easily exportable (whether they are made using the Wiki or DocBook)  
to HTML / Text / PDF, so that the ports can include them.

P.P.S.: I tried to compile a more comprehensive list of things which  
should be part of / could be used as inspiration for the port manuals:

Also note that thanius has begun working on this port manual

For an overview of existing platform / port pages in the Wiki, see

http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Platforms
http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Platforms/Overview

(and note the discussion pages of these, I think three pages with  
very similar purpose are one o two too many ;-)
