Hi I am happy to contribute.
I welcome your use of LaTeX :)
How would you structure the writing process?

Best regards,

Dimiter

Subject: Contributions to the ImageJ User Guide

Hi,

There has long been a need for a printable ImageJ users manual. In addition,
ImageJ has evolved so fast that updated documentation is also needed.

I've started assembling an User Guide, and to make a really long story short, I
think this document has now the potential to be the most complete IJ manual
written to date.

Although the bulk of the sections is done, it is yet to be finished, and I'am
afraid I won't be able to commit to it as much as I would like to from now on.

Apart from the command descriptions that are missing (highlighted with a
'To be completed' label),I think the guide still misses:

- More Tips and Tricks on ImageJ usage
- Descriptions of less known aspects of ImageJ or its internal Plugins
- Added information on FFT
- Added information on Segmentation
- Added information on Processing Filters
- Rules of thumb concerning image processing
- Corrections, suggestions, imprecisions, etc..

I was wondering: Do you think you can contribute with any of the above?

Wayne is hosting the preliminary draft at:
    <http://rsbweb.nih.gov/ij/docs/user-guide.pdf>

I would ask you to have a look at it, see how it looks, and If you think you can
help I would be delighted to collect your input.

Thanks in advance,

\Tiago
