Future manual outline
Présentation d'inkscape Introduction to Inkscape
La boîte à outils Toolbox | how far, should we include here all tool options? for example "How to use bézier tool"
Les dialogues Windows and Dialogs
le menu Chemin Path Menu
le menu Effets et les filtres Effects and Filters Menu
les raccourcis claviers Keyboard Map | do we need to put other input information together with keyboard stuff (pen tablet and even mouse related)?
I would add some step by step tutorials like the "beginning with inkscape" but on other subjects. This has been done by gimp docs team very successfully.
Here's a more detailed outline proposal. I know it's missing some stuff. If you have any suggestions, feel free to add and/or comment on them. -JF
