"Getting Started" Documentation

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Describe the new feature more precisely.

I have an NXT (v1) Lego set. I am recently begun learning Python. I want to
use the software you are developing. I have installed the software on my
laptop. Now what?

I would like some very basic, even condescending documentation, on how to
use this software -- perhaps an example or two with step-by-step
instructions on how to implement them would be helpful.

Why do you think it's important?

Lowering the barrier for entry will enable an increase in popularity which
should in turn result in a) people helping you with the project, and b)
people telling you how great you are for developing the project and sharing
your efforts with all of us -- it is nice to be appreciated.

Any ideas on how to implement it?

Ask someone who knows considerably less than you to try out this software;
whenever they say "What do I do now?" respond to them via the project wiki : )

I will look into writing a tutorial sometime today. Until I can get it done, 
check
out the examples in the "examples" directory of the package or SVN. Thanks for 
the idea!

The new Tutorial wiki page is up. It's a bit sparse as of yet, so please give
feedback on what to improve. I have given you the ability to edit wiki pages, 
so you
can add information and make changes yourself if you're feeling up to it.

I'm not going to close this issue until you are satisfied with the tutorial(s) 
available.

How is this coming? If no response for several days, I will close this issue.

Unfortunately I have not spent any more time on this issue or nxt-python at 
all. I
may have some time for this project in October 2010 but then again I may not.

All right, I will close it for now to keep the issue tracker tidy. If you have 
time
and need more help, say so and I'll reopen it.
