Openshot-qt: User manual content

Created on 30 Nov 2019  路  4Comments  路  Source: OpenShot/openshot-qt

While glancing over the Developers section of the User Guide, I happened to notice this passage, in particular the first sentence of the second paragraph:

UserGuide-Developer-ManyBugsQuote_1

_*cough*_ _Ahem..._

UserGuide-Developer-ManyBugsQuote_2

While in some ways I appreciate the brutal honesty there, we should probably fix that.

More practically, I noticed there were places where the Guide directs the user to some directory location under /.openshot_qt/..., which is just _wrong_. ($HOME/.openshot_qt/... or ~/.openshot_qt/..., sure, that's acceptable, and even correct outside of Windows. But /.openshot_qt/ is a very different thing.)

All of which is to say, #2989 is still open, and would clearly benefit from some attention.

(Sorry, couldn't resist!)

@ferdnyc - I'm still lurking in the shadows following this project btw. 馃槃 I remember at one point I was thinking @N3WWN would be a great person for Docs. I could see from his responses to issues that he has fantastic knowledge of OpenShot from a users perspective and has technical knowledge too. 馃憤

Absolutely! Hell, if ego-stroking is fair game, it is obvious to anyone who interacts with @N3WWN that they are dealing with a hoopy frood who always knows where his towel is.
