Wow that's great stuff. Do you think you could put it in wiki/trac
format on qeradiant.com? Your SVN account also lets you logon to track
and edit content. I had started updating the documentation for
compiling at http://www.qeradiant.com/cgi-bin/trac.cgi/wiki/ZeroRadiant
but it's nowhere close to being as complete as this. Either that or I
can just host the html content and link to it from the wiki.
