Some ideas:
1. History of GeoToad (geocrunch 2002, geotoad 2003-)
- got to find whether the original author had written about this
2. Concepts and inherent limitations of GeoToad (file cache; store
configuration, cookies, GUID mapping in YAML; use "printable pages" instead of
"cache details" because of frequent redesigns)
3. Installation of GeoToad (which package to download, prerequisites, caveats,
compatibility problems)
4. First steps with GeoToad (TUI, what it can do and what it cannot; basic
examples)
5. Expert use of GeoToad (command line mode, use in scripts, special use-cases
like "along a route" or "latest caches in the vicinity" etc.)
6. Additional software to use with GeoToad output (gpsbabel, geo-*, GSAK, ...)
7. Perhaps a fully-fledged setup:
- prepare for daily geocaching work: cache lists, spoiler images, maps
- maintain list of own finds
- maintain own logs
- create input for GCStatistic ...
Appendix: some useful tables like country and state IDs, attribute codes
LaTEX snippets preferred.

In the discussion below Issue 288, there's a request for a step-by-step
walkthrough "how to use SVN trunk and patches". If someone would be willing to
write up such instructions, please include a pointer to the "work in progress"
page which always has the latest and greatest patches.

The SVN logs show that the first revision was committed on Apr 21, 2003. This
means that in a little less than three months, GeoToad will celebrate its 12th
birthday.
Some decent user manual would be a nice birthday present, I think.
I consider myself too involved in coding to write proper _user_ documentation,
but of course I'm willing to share a couple of use cases.
Any volunteers?
