  3. #THOW TO WRITE A TUTORIAL
  4. #C2,R5
  5. Before consulting this ~HReference Manual~N, I recommend that you have a copy of
  6.  
  7. the ~HQuick Reference Summary~N, available from the ~G~IInstructions Menu~N. It will
  8.  
  9. make it much easier to follow the explanations.
  10.  
  11.  
  12.  
  13. The ~HReference Manual~N is designed as a ~M~Itutorial~N with eight ~HChapters~N.
  14.  
  15. Each ~HChapter~N builds on the preceding one, therefore the first time through
  16.  
  17. I would recommend following the ~HChapter order~N. Afterwards it can be used as
  18.  
  19. a '~G~Ilook-up Reference~N' when you want to check out a specific ~HCommand~N. And
  20.  
  21. remember that the ~H~bTutorialWriter~N~C~I Editor~N has a ~HHELP System~N which also explains
  22.  
  23. these ~HCommands~N.
