<h1>GZigZag documentation</h1>
<pre>$Id: index.html,v 1.4.4.1 2002/03/07 19:56:13 ajk Exp $</pre>
<p>
Most documents referred to from this page are incomplete. So be
warned. If there is something that you'd need urgently, please
contact the developers at <a
href="mailto:zzdev@xanadu.net">&lt;zzdev@xanadu.net&gt;</a>.
</p>
<p>
Note that all HTML documents are available in two flavours: one
that works if your browser's CSS support, if existing, is not
too buggy (such as Mozilla, Netscape Navigator 2 or 3, or
Konqueror); and another meant for users of Netscape Navigator 4,
which has bugs that make the normal version illegible when the
stylesheet support is on. Choose your format wisely.

<h2>User's documentation</h2>
<p>
New users are encouraged to start with <a
href="Gentle_Introduction/gi.html">Gentle Introduction to Ted
Nelson's ZigZag structure</a> (<a
href="Gentle_Introduction/gi-ns4.html">NS4-compatible
version</a>). It introduces the reader to the ZigZag universe
in a general way without touching the aspects of actually using
it in GZigZag. The background information given by the Gentle
Introduction will be invaluable to a GZigZag user.
</p>
<p>
The article <a href="CyberText/ct.html">GZigZag - A Platform for
Cybertext Experiments</a> (<a
href="CyberText/ct-ns4.html">NS4-compatible version</a>), written
for Cybertext Yearbook edited by Markku Eskelinen & Raine
Koskimaa, is an excellent introduction to the potentials of
GZigZag.
</p>
<p>
The <a href="UsersGuide/newug.html">GZigZag User's Guide</a> (<a
href="UsersGuide/newug-ns4.html">NS4-compatible version</a>)
introduces the reader to the actual using of the GZigZag system.
This is what tells you how you create new cells and connect
cells and so on.
</p>
<p>
There is also a <a href="Glossary/gl.html">GZigZag glossary</a>
(<a href="Glossary/gl-ns4.html">NS4-compatible version</a>) that
contains short definitions of key GZigZag terms.
</p>
<p>
The <a href="Nile/nile.html">The nile (nile is a literate editor)
applitude</a> (<a href="Nile/nile-ns4.html">NS4-compatible version</a>)
article and <a href="Nile/nileug.html">Nile User's Guide</a>
(<a href="Nile/nileug-ns4.html">NS4-compatible version</a>) document
a new experimental way of writing text.
