Maybe it´s time to unsticky this thread, and create a new one for the Wiki manual?

Also I think it would be worth considering if we should have 2 versions of the manuals online.
One for the stable version (2.x?), where the documentation is also stable and according to that version, and then another for the daily builds, which evolve organicly and often look and behave nothing like the manual describes.

This thread for discussion of the "wiki" and User Manual at
http://www.xboxmediacenter.com/wiki/

(since, as of June 2007, the wiki is on lockdown, and is no longer a real wiki*)

Please focus comments on use of the wiki and "XBMC Manual", as opposed to questions about using XBMC itself.

What is there to understand ? We we're forced by an external element to do this.

Alternative is to have Wiki vandalized with profanities all over, so we choose this route instead.
If you need edit rights, and you're not the person vandalizing the Wiki, getting those rights is quite easy

Hi,

Is there anyway to download the XBMC online manual onto my computer, maybe as a compiled HTML file? It would be useful to be able to access it directly on my computer rather than through the web.

Cheers.
