Make the online user manual publicly available #27

That way interested users can buy with more confidence (until a trial version becomes available)

For some reason, I was certain that this had already been filed (or sitting in my inbox, or something like that), but for the life of me I can't find it today.

You're absolutely right. There's no reason to keep the user manual secret at all.

The only things holding me back are just historical accidents (i.e., my own lack of foresight): the webpage and manual are in different repositories, and use different template systems, and have different build/deployment scripts. But those all need consolidating, anyway, and shouldn't be difficult to fix.

Have you done this yet?

kengruven commented 6 years ago

Sorry, not yet. I've taken a break from this project for several months. I'm back working on it now, so you may see this in the near future.

Also, with Apple Help remaining mostly undocumented, slightly buggy and/or impossible to troubleshoot (I really can't tell), and changing in each new version of macOS, it's entirely possible that the web-based help will soon become the primary documentation for Strukt.
