Credits

This book was originally contributed by Mohsen Mostafa Jokar (see e-mail thread that includes a PDF) with the intention to become a book that others can contribute to and evolve over time.

Improving chapters

We originally converted all the chapters from a PDF file to wiki markup. There are some areas where the formatting could be better and where you can help! Check out Book/HelloXenProject/Instructions_for_Improvement.

Adding new chapters

Over time, you may want to add new chapters. If you do so and you want to create a chapter that fits between say chapter 1 and 2, then add chapter 1a, 1b, etc.

Book/HelloXenProject/1-Chapter
Book/HelloXenProject/1a-Chapter (this would be the chapter you are adding)
Book/HelloXenProject/2-Chapter

This will help ensure they stay in alphabetical order. You will also have to update Book/HelloXenProject/0-Contents and Subsequent_Contributions

Printing the Book

Go to Special:Book, select Start Book Creator, then Add This Category to your Book, then Show Book. Remove pages that you don't want (e.g. Book/HelloXenProject/Instructions for Improvement‎ ), provide a title and subtitle (the process fails if you do not do each). You may also want to choose one column. Then go to Download as PDF.
