Hi,
Some feedback:
- The introduction paragraph can be shortened. For example, tell the
reader to "try the subsequent examples using ConTeXt Live web page"
(as opposed to 'almost all of the examples in the series can be run
online'). On any example that does not work, indicate such at the
time.
- "abt 40 euros" is missing "ou".
- "combo" should be "combination".
- "In Windows", "In Mac", etc. can be "Windows", "Mac", etc.
- Use the active voice (it shortens text).
- Avoid using abbreviations and jargon.
As Marco noted, why not apply such wonderful effort to the wiki?

Hello!
Inspired by some informal discussions at the recent ConTeXt meeting I started to write a *really* basic ConTeXt tutorial. However, before I get further than the first six chapters, I'd like to get feedback on it, especially on the content, but also on the layout. The file is (at least temporarily) available at http://www.lucet.fi/pdfs/ctxbasics.pdf.
I know already that there are a few things missing in the existing chapters, but I'd like to know if the document is any good and if the style is suitable for such a document. I've planned and written it out of my own experiences with ConTeXt, so maybe this document could become a My Way doc when it is finished (something public domain anyway).
Thank you,
Mari ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki!
